Five turnovers led to plenty of points for the New Orleans Saints, who beat the Detroit Lions 52-38 on Sunday in Louisiana.  Matthew Stafford passed for 312 yards and three touchdowns for the Lions, but he also threw three interception, two of which were returned for touchdowns, and fumbled twice, including one in the end zone which was recovered by the Saints for another touchdown.  The Lions have lost two in a row to fall to (3-3) on the season as they head into their bye week.  Detroit returns to action on October 29, in the Sunday Night Game against Pittsburgh at Ford Field.
