So he threw two and half more quarters with a torn rotator cuff?
Unlikely

Telling yourself the wrong thing.

So you think it's likely that he was throwing with a torn rotator cuff?

He was throwing with whatever injury he suffered on that hit. I have watched every pass he has thrown in his Saints career, including those earlier in the game, and those passes after the hit were severely affected by something. He is tough enough to throw through a cuff injury because he has more guts than any QB we have ever had.

Totally agree. But my point was that I think Drew's smart enough to know the difference (& experienced). Clearly the injury impaired his ability to throw, it was noticeably worse after that hit. I just thought it was a sign that it wasn't too serious

You can throw, it just hurts a little and you don't have as much strength. Tore mine back in 2000 and worked with it for 3 months before I had surgery to repair it. Your shoulder becomes unstable though and it could dislocate if the tear is significant.

Ever had a rotator cuff injury? It is very painful, but not totally debilitating.

In other words, likely.

How is that likely? You seem like an expert on just about everything, do tell...
