Tom Brady stas alert, uses QB sneak as dangerous weapon

FOXBORO — Tom Brady forever will be remembered for his ability to rack up passing yards by the thousands, but he also has developed a reputation for a feat of feet.

Brady’s propensity to hurl himself into a car crash for the sake of a yard has become legendary. He is, without question, the best of his generation at the quarterback sneak, which is a comically ironic name for such a violent play.

Brady has a high degree of strategic aptitude to diagnose the appropriate times to execute the plunge, but it’s not like he is the only quarterback who can find an open gap a couple feet in front of his nose.
