Saints declared MLB Jonathan Vilma inactive for Sunday's Week 17 game against the Panthers. Vilma has a sore left knee, but would have played if this game meant more to the Saints. If the 49ers win in St. Louis today, the Saints will be locked into the No. 3 seed. The rest of the their inactives: RB Mark Ingram, WR Lance Moore, TE John Gilmore, TE Tory Humphrey, DE Jeff Charleston and S Malcolm Jenkins.
