Now teams about to copy what the Eagles’ defense did to the Saints offense.

Misdirection relies on OL timing and execution. That's hard to do after substituting two OL during the game. Look at the play were both guards pulled opposite directions and ran into each other.

Kubiak adjusted to what the players he had could do and that kept the Saints in the game. In games like today, Payton pressed too hard to stick to his plan which caused points off of turnovers. I think if Payton was calling the offense today, the game would have been a blowout in favor of the Eagles by halftime.

I'm talking just the basic motions used previously. That is a lot of window dressing with wide receivers, tight ends, and running backs moving. The OL doesn't have to worry about what the motion is, that's not their job. It doesn't matter what player is moving behind the OL, they know the play and who their assignments are. The motion is window dressing to slow the defense down mentally. The Saints would have 2 or 3 guys constantly in motion before the snap. Today was a whole lot of "line up and run between the tackles with Kamara". Lack of window dressing made it a lot easier for the Eagles to victimize the Saints OL.
