These things happen but Ruiz has let this happen more than once and he never even seem to put a hand on the defender ... this time the defensive player went way beyond arm hook and landing on the side of his target.

Broken ribs ... 6 weeks to heal

Punctured Lung ... depending on severity most punctured lungs require 6 to 8 weeks.

Might not see Brees before playoffs ... IF.

My wife got a collapsed lung from a kidney procedure. It was two weeks before I could put her back out there in service.

Fractures and a collapsed lung ... it's a good thing he didn't take another big hit and didn't play the second half, that could have been quite a scary situation.

Wife was ER MD at one point in her career straight up diagnosis ... Google it. Might be different for an athlete / athletic criteria but with 5 cracked ribs total on both side at 41 years of age ... optimistic but if possible it will be Drew Brees.

Not ready to move on to post Brees Saints at his point.

Apparently he came into the game with cracked ribs from the previous game. That's why he was wearing a flak jacket.

With respect sir, whether we are ready or not doesn't matter. I am just hoping with a week of taking first team reps and the Payton putting in a game plan specifically for him, Winston can step up.

Understood ... Just hoping Brees does make it back and takes us to a SB victory. Hoping as well that Payton can successfully put together a game plan for Winston and Winston can execute that plan. Stepping into Arens offense last year he threw 30 INT’s ... Yikes.

Also Dennis Allen puts together a plan to neutralize ATL they have played much better as of late ... They always play us hard.

Get well soon Mr. Brees. Let's see if Hill can be a NFL QB. Winston is not the short or long term answer.

If Winston isn't the short or long term answer, it's definitely not Taysom Hill.

He's not a starting NFL caliber QB.

Period.
