He has a great feel for what were looking to do.If Im managing the game, or paying attention to what just happened on a punt return, we are far enough along in this process where it is easy for us, Payton said.Carmichael was the primary play caller in Drew Brees ear in Sundays season-opener against the Oakland Raiders. New Orleans lost, 35-34, but the performance of the offense was hardly to blame. Brees eclipsed 400 yards passing for the 14th time in his 16-year career, finishing with 423 yards and four touchdown passes.The Saints play at the New York Giants this Sunday.Against the Raiders, the offense finished with 507 net yards -- more than any team in the opening week in the season.It was reminiscent of some of the performances the Saints put up in 2011, when Carmichael was essentially forced into play-calling duties by a fluke injury to Sean Payton, who broke his leg when caught up in a tackle along the sideline at Tampa Bay in the sixth game of that season. Carmichael handled play calling for the final nine regular season games, when the Saints went 8-1 and scored 40-plus points five times, topping out at 62 once. That Saints offense set a still-standing record for yards in a season at 7,474.The Saints also scored 45 points in their playoff-opening victory that season, and 32 points in their playoff loss at San Francisco.With Payton suspended in connection with NFLs bounty investigation in 2012, Carmichael again called offensive plays, and the Saints put up 6,574 yards, an average of 410.9 yards per game, which ranked second behind only New England (427.9 yards per game) that season.Brees said Payton and Carmichael think so much alike when it comes to play-calling, the offense doesnt seem to change much whether the voice he hears in his helmet ear piece is one of the other.Its working out great. I feel like those guys are so much on the same page, Brees said after practice on Wednesday.dddddddddddd Pete did a phenomenal job in 11, a phenomenal job in 12 and really did a great job on Sunday. Hes done a great job whenever hes been called upon. He always has to be ready in that position. I mean, nobody thought in 2011 Sean would basically be knocked out of a game.Carmichael was part of Paytons original coaching staff in 2006, starting as a quarterbacks and passing game coach. He was elevated to offensive coordinator in 2009, the season the Saints won their only Super Bowl.In 2011, like now, Carmichael isnt calling all of the plays. Payton talks to him through his headset throughout the game, and when Payton feels strongly about a particular play at a particular time, thats what gets called, Payton explained.I can whistle into his ear and just say hey lets think about this right here this next series. It is something that works and each week well pay attention to, but hes really on top of what we are doing offensively, Payton said.As you are managing a game and you have someone like Pete (calling plays), there are a number of benefits, Payton said. It allows me that freedom to pay attention to the other facets a little bit clearer.And if anything needs attention right now, its the Saints defense, which ranked 31st in the NFL the past two seasons and this season has already struggled with injuries to defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins, who was New Orleans top draft choice, as well as starting linebacker Dannell Ellerbe and top cornerback Delvin Breaux. The Raiders piled up 486 yards in Week 1, second only to the Saints, meaning New Orleans defense once again ranks 31st, albeit only through one week.Game notesPayton said Tuesdays release of running back C.J. Spiller was accelerated by the need to sign another cornerback on the heels of Breauxs injury. The Saints added B.W. Webb, who was practicing on Wednesday. The Saints had six running backs on the roster before cutting Spiller, who never produced as hoped after his 2015 signing. But Payton emphasized that Spiller was a phenomenal guy (and) teammate, and added that the window in this building or this clubs not definitely closed.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
