The swing Pass

Why the swing pass to the RB is so hard to defend. Granted, I love it when Reggie breaks one for 10-15 yards. But it seems like the spy on the back should be able to come up and pick that thing for six every time!

If i'm a linebacker assigned to the RB, i'm following him to the outside, if I see his head looking back i'm taking off as if they are throwing to him.

More times than not, that play is good for at least 6-8 yards.

Only reason I think of this is I see the Rams doing this a lot if Jackson plays sunday!!
