New Orleans Saints get healthier Detroit Lions this time around

If one thing stood out the last time the Detroit Lions came to town to play the New Orleans Saints, it was the players who didn't play. The most prominent of them was defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, then serving a suspension for losing his cool in a game against the Green Packers on Thanksgiving Day -- but there were others.

Part of the story when New Orleans (13-3) hosts Detroit (10-6) in an NFC wild-card game Saturday night will be Suh's return. At least, that's a story line that will garner a lot of attention. Equally significant, however, might be who is in or out of the lineup.

"Certainly, I would say they're healthier from the last time we played them," Saints Coach Sean Payton said Monday. "It wasn't just because of health, but one of their better defensive players wasn't able to play in the first game that we played against them. They're playing with a lot of confidence offensively. They had a big game yesterday (at Green Bay). It was a game kind of like ours where there was a lot of scoring. I think that confidence as the season finishes up bodes well for both teams."

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.
