I guarantee the whole car is rolling unless it's broken in the middle, springs and a rear sway bar would be a good place to start depending on your budget.

Is saying the rear is up in the air any different than saying the nose is on the ground?

Think of a wobbly table, one corner (inside rear) only comes up cause the opposing corner (outside front) dives down. Stiffening the rear doesn't fix this.
