Saints went from dead last in the NFL in pre-snap motion last year to first this year after week 1

It almost didn't matter what we did in terms of play action this week.

Carr with playaction: 7/9 for 58 yards and a TD
Carr w/o playaction: 12/14 for 142 yards and 2 TD

I'll be interested to see the motion splits, but we probably need a better opponent to get better data.

I think those numbers show that we did a good job at keeping the defense off balance. We attacked the defense, instead of just taking what they gave us. That was one of the biggest complaints with Charmichael, he didn’t know how to attack a defense. There were games we should have won had our OC known how to call plays even just a little more aggressively. Such as that game in Green Bay.
