The Detroit Lions ran nearly all of the same plays last season under Joe Lombardi as what the New Orleans Saints would run.

"Listen, you could watch a Detroit game from this year in front of me right now, I could call 95 percent of the plays," Drew Brees said last week in Arizona. "Absolutely. Probably 70 percent of them before you even hit the play button. Just by looking at the formation, 'All right, it's this.'"

Lombardi spent seven seasons with the Saints before joining the Lions' staff.
