I thought the same thing.

I think, either they didn't have confidence in their interior line beating our bigs or they didn't want to risk any injury to a 40 year old Brady. Like Manning in his last years, those injuries heal much more slowly at that age.

Pats almost never do QB sneak out of THAT formation. That formation took QB sneak away. Usually we do the QB sneak after going 4 or 5 wide.
