A collapsed lung is usually fully healed in two weeks time. That is no longer an issue at all, nor has been for weeks. And he had 11 rib fractures, not 11 fractured ribs. That has been pointed out by others here but continues to be ignored. There is a huge difference. And fractures have degrees. If they were displaced he definitely wouldn't be ready. If they were hairline, then he could easily be ready and pain free. But, I agree that Brees WAS banged up.

The only reason Brees is playing is that he was cleared by the medical team AND given the go by the Saints front office. You know he wanted to return himself.
