The staple of the Saints offense was..

we threw to Kamara 13 times. It didn't work.

Mostly swing passes to the outside. I believe the OP is talking about how we used to get backs iso’d on a backer on option routes, wheel routes. shite was lethal. We don’t do that anymore.

Kamara was used as a check down while the rest of the team all ran go routes.

Carmichael was there their entire time and saw how effective this was.

Carmichael lacks situational awareness.

The simple answer is Carmichael isn't Payton. He probably uses crayons to draw up plays.

WHY??

Because we don't have the OLine we once had, and we don't have the QB we once had.

There was a formation in the Titans game where Carr was in the shotgun and Jamal Williams and Olave were lined up on either side of him and both went out for routes. It was an actual inventive play that gave Olave a running start into a choice route and could have been even more dangerous with an explosive back running a wheel route instead of mediocre Williams.

Didn't see it called with Miller against Green Bay.

Didn't see it called with Kamara against Tampa.

Looked like Pete's big wrinkle this week was to take Carr out after every down where he actually completed a pass (thereby fricking up any kind of rhythm he could have gotten into) to put in Taysom so he could scramble around and wait for another long developing route to hopefully open up. Oh, and also run a bunch of sweeps and outside toss run plays against 2 of the fastest LBs in the NFL.
