Re: If the Saints beat KC.....
It was about three weeks before I played and they bothered me the rest of the season. Believe it or not rugby players get hit in the ribs all the time.
Drew says he's not in pain and it won't hamper his ability to play. Hopefully his throwing mechanics are unaffected. |

Payton said Brees would only play if pain free and having a full range of motion.

Re: If the Saints beat KC.....
No way you are healed after 11 fractured ribs and a punctured lung AFTER 4 weeks. Brees playing against the Chiefs tells me it is his last year. I thought maybe we had some Saints magic in the tank but todays performance... smh!

Re: If the Saints beat KC.....
11 rib fractures, not 11 fractured ribs. A single rib can have a fracture in more than one location. As for a collapsed lung, it is usually completely, 100% healed in two weeks time. It is absolutely 100% in four weeks. It was a relevant as the skinned knee he had at nine years old.
