Stafford’s 3 TD passes lead Lions past Saints, 35-27

Brees had his foot taped up during the game after limping off the field and was in a walking boot during his post-game press conference. Sean Payton says he’s day-to-day, and Brees reportedly wants to play in the final two games of the year, but that would be stupid. “Each day we’ll gather more information and have a better idea of where he will be as it pertains to playing”.

But the defeat guaranteed New Orleans (5-9) consecutive losing seasons for the first time since Payton became coach in 2006.

Both Joique Bell and Abdullah had more than 70 yards against the Saints, and the Lions have rushed for more than 100 yards in six of the seven games since Cooter took over offensive coordinator duties. “As far as I know, he is the backup quarterback, correct?” tight end Benjamin Watson said. Their 150 yards was the second best mark of the season, and they averaged 6.5 yards per carry as Abdullah (77 yards) and Bell (71 yards) each had season-high totals and averaged 8.6 and 8.9 yards per carry, respectively. “I’m sure they’ll prepare this week thoroughly…. and be ready to play or go into play if called upon”.

NOTES: Johnson, nursing an ankle injury, had one catch for 19 yards, his second straight game with just one reception….

Matthew Stafford was 22 of 25 for 254 yards and three touchdowns. Cooks led all receivers with 10 receptions, 124 yards and his TD.

The Saints finished the contest with 69 yards and a 3.8 average on only 18 attempts with a long of 17 yards. Meanwhile, Lance Moore also had one catch, which gained 10 yards. Brees plans to aggressively treat the injury and hopes to play this Sunday at home against the Jaguars, the source said, but he is expected to be listed as day-to-day.
