While the New England Patriots have a future first-ballot Hall of Famer at quarterback — you may have heard from him, Tom Brady is his name — the team is using a rather balanced approach to attack opposing defenses: through their first 14 games of the regular season, the Patriots have dropped back to pass a combined 535 times, and advanced the football via the run on 401 occasions, combining for a 57:43 ratio.
This comparatively even distribution of pass and run has a trickle-down effect on how the offense as a whole operates, which in turn makes it harder to defend.
