Addition -- some are saying that the information was provided by Ed Werder. Unfortunately, Ed Werder is the SECOND biggest liar at ESPN (behind Chris Mortensen).

My thinking is simple. Brees never misses a game even if hurt, it cant be good.

I agree with you. Sean Payton is saying there's a lot of BS flying around the interwebs right now.....

Same . Im just worried that Brees has been told they cant do anymore for that shoulder, so just try to work it out. Have surgery to maybe pass well again and miss one season, or just hang it up, and you should be fine in a year or 2 with no pain.
We both know Brees will skip the surgery to play. Id rather he hang it up and not be in pain, hes done enouph or wait till next season.

Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff

Well which is it? A bruised or torn rotator cuff? Don't wait for Payton to tell the truth. I don't think he should have let Drew finish the game yesterday. He made have a created a more serious injury by playing.

Re: RUMOR - Torn Rotator Cuff

Another thing about rotator cuff injuries is that they can often be hard to diagnose, depending on where the tear is. The initial test may show one thin and additional damage found later.

I've heard the scans have been sent to Dr. James Andrews to look at. The conflicting reports may be a result of conflicting opinions by the doctors.

This is true. When I had mine, x-ray didn't detect it and an author gram didn't see it either which is why I worked with it for 3 months. So depending on your tolorence of pain you could still throw with it but the strength is just not there. Only a MRI and 2 doctors finally saw my tear and when they went in also found a bone spur that had to be shaved down so just because the first Dr. Didn't see anything I wouldn't exhale a sigh of relief just yet. When Dr. Andrews gives the all clear then I'll breath that sigh of relief. Hopefully it is just bruised but those 2 hits could have easily caused a tear with his arm in motion.
