The issue is you'd really need an evolutionary pressure for them to develop that attack behaviour. It could be defensive, but jumping on the thing you're trying to fight off is a rather bold strategy, especially when the results aren't instant. Alternatively, it could be an attack behaviour, allowing them to take down larger prey. Thus just leaves the issue of how the frog would consume its meal. They could probably evolve to swallow smaller prey, but the obvious adaption, which I think we'd see in this case, would be for the frogs to evolve teeth.
Defensive pack tactics.
A few members of the frog army do a Kermitkaze on whatever predator is a threat and the rest all escape.
I had not considered the concept of an army of bipedal, running, neurotoxin coated, suicide frogs, and now that I have, I intend to stay far away from amphibians, just in case. I still think they should each sport a set of human like teeth though, just to really drive the point home.
Kudos on 'Kermitkaze', that gave me a good chuckle.
Use cadavers for moist egg incubation due to numerous aquatic predators in closed environment with limited bodies of water?
That would require land scavengers to be quite rare.
If there were numerous frogs, payload delivery would only need few successful splat-and-runs and then just wait.
There would also have to be local hairless naked prey animals with big enough body cavities.
