NFL.com article: Vilma's return has Saints back as a Contender

Nice read...

As well as anyone, Vilma knows the Saints defense needs to start producing in a way that resembles the far more aggressive play of past seasons. When the Saints won Super Bowl XLIV, it wasn't because they had more exceptional defensive playmakers. It was because they were playing with a much more physical style.

It's the reason, Vilma says, that for the first time in months, he's spent very little mental energy on his ongoing appeal.

"I honestly won't think about that for a while," Vilma said. "We've got work to do. We're worried about trying to find a way to get into these playoffs. If Atlanta slips up along the way, (and we get) even a chance to win the (NFC South), that's what we're trying to do."

He made a couple nice plays and looked near enough close to game speed, couple of missed tackles but that's the story of our entire D

I thought he might just hang onto that tipped pass he had...woulda been sweet, INT in his first game back.

Glad to have you back out there Jon, keep it up!

I wouldn't be surprised if Goodell fined him for trying to sack Josh Freeman on that delayed blitz where Roman Harper was screwed out of an interception.
