Look at the gap the two interior linemen gave Brady. They basically gave the Patriots a 1st down.

Also, look at this:

Only 13 active QBs have run at least 20 sneaks (through 2016). Of those, Tom Brady has called his own number the most at 124, twice as often as runner-up Drew Brees (62 attempts). Brady also has the highest success rate at 91.1 percent, and over his career, his sneaks have added 137 expected points.
