re: Drew’s injury appears to be more than banged up ribs

Drew Brees is Manning in 2015. Injured and arm shot.

You are giving manning too much credit, he wasnt even good enough to be a starter that year. He just had an all world defense behind him

For the last time it wasn't a concussion. They are required to take his helmet.

I think Drew was hurt, but I also think that Drew would have come back in if the game was tied or the Saints were behind.

He never took off the helmet or went to the locker room.

I’m clearly a dummy and no doctor, but I wonder if we’re looking at damaged cartilage or a core muscle injury, similar to the injured oblique he had a couple years ago. Obviously the ribs could be cracked or broken too.

Seems similar to Myles Brennan's injury. Hope its not as long lasting.

I think he broke a few ribs

The shoulder injury already was hurt

He looks pissed

He was already at 60% going into the game and wearing a flak jacket. His body was breaking down and one good hit from it being over

You say this with utter confidence...

And I got picked to go to falcons game. Go figure

in real time i said "shoulder is done"

i think it is a shoulder injury

I said the same.

Anything other than the shoulder will be a reasonably short (2-4 week) issue.

If it's the shoulder, the nature of the injury will tell the story. Could end his career...could be insignificant but given everything else needs to be rested.
