Not smart IMHO. If he comes back before the injury is completely healed, gets reinjured and is out for the playoffs, that's a catastropic situation. Take 4 weeks off, heal completely, and come back for the KC game at home.

I'm not sure IR matters. Thomas' injury ended up being a lot longer and the team never put him on IR.

No, but we aren't talking EIGHT days either. My point was that this is not that serious a combination of injuries. The "end of his reign" rhetoric is unwarranted. The point is that he isn't going to be gone for an extended period. Or, at least for those that want a chance at another Lombardi wish, longer than necessary.

But, do not forget that Brees recovered from that UCL (thumb) injury last season in a shorter period of time than athletes almost half his age.

+1. Deuce/Ellias Williams mentioned that on Thomas as they don't really believe he is 100% healthy either.

No need to rush Brees back. There is entirely too much football left to be played. The duo of JW and Hill are more than capable of winning 2, maybe even 3 of the upcoming games.

2 weeks with a Brady bye week week 13 gives Brees a chance to not let Brady run away with the record.

The next four weeks is Falcons, Broncos, Falcons, Eagles. I hope that he'll be ready for the Eagles.

Then the Saints play the Chiefs, Vikings, Panthers.

Most importantly I hope tha Ruiz is living at the Saints facility learning.

Note: Tony Romo suffered broken ribs and a collapsed lung in 2011 and played 8 days later. Just saying.

Or you could chill the fu*k out on the collapsed lung like you told me to when all I did was state what was in the report.... once.

I don't believe I ever told you to chill the "fu*k" out.

How much we win and how much the Bucs lose (ummm, go Rams?) will obviously play a role on how conservative we get to be in bringing Brees back.

I broke a rib and sternum last year. It took a good month just for the pain to subside. And I had to sleep in a lounge chair for three weeks, it was so painful to just simply get up from the chair.

If Drew comes back in a couple of weeks, he's getting some new tech medical assistance. Maybe he is. But I doubt it. Let him completely heal, about 4 to 6 weeks.

Yeah, but you're older than Drew!
