https://www.theadvocate.com/new_orleans/sports/saints/article_75a8141c-9f2d-11e8-85b0-5b89cb28ba26.amp.html

Underhill NO Advocate: The Saints are always looking for new play 'inspiration,' and they aren't afraid to steal

“The other thing the Saints do is study the top eight or so teams in each category to see what teams are doing and keep up with trends. One team coach Sean Payton and the offensive staff used to study specifically was this week’s preseason opponent, the Arizona Cardinals. Payton liked the “slot combinations” former Arizona coach Bruce Arians used and the different ways he stretched the field.
It’s hard to know where some specific ideas originated from, and while those around the team are willing to speak openly about the concept of stealing plays, something coach Sean Payton has done multiple times over the past few years, specifics are hard to come by. However, you can make some educated guesses by watching the team's games...”
