Yep, I specifically remember 2009 Wk2 vs Eagles, first score of the game, a fake toss to Reggie and all three LBers biting on it, shifting to their right, leaving a seam on the vacated side wide open for an easy TD pass to Colston.

Very similar, this year, was Brees' record-setting TD pass to TreQuan Smith vs Washington on MNF, where Kamara simply wheeling out of the backfield to the right caused two DBs to bite up to cover Kamara and left Trequan wide the fvck open up the sideline.

Neither Bush nor Kamara get statistical credit for those scores, and yet they were hugely responsible for making those plays happen.
