The lost art of the QB sneak

Since 2000, QB sneaks with a yard or less to gain have resulted in a first down or TD 84% of the time, over 20% more than traditional runs in the same circumstance.
I find it shocking how neglected this play is in today's NFL. Every single game first downs and TDs are lost due to some mythical fear of QB injury on this play.
If the Steelers just let their tank of a QB get 12 inches this game is 17-13 right now.

Refusing to take 12 inches is never a problem in Aggie Land.

Brady runs the QB sneak better than anyone else in the league IMO.
Most teams avoid it I think because they don't want their QBs to get hurt, but I totally get your point.

I remember when 05 USC used to run it and get 5 yards

If people are worried about QBs getting hurt they should just have a TE that has practiced snaps behind center.

Owners and coaches probably are against anything that could hurt a franchise QB

I don't think it's so much the fear of getting the QB hurt as it is the QB fumbling. Let's remember that most NFL QBs aren't the greatest ball carriers
