Anyone have an average timetable on broken ribs?

I know many players, including RB's, have played through broken ribs before. I don't know how they do it. I had 1 broken rib and I was out of work for 2 weeks. I can't imagine playing freak'n football with that kind of pain. Of course I didn't have the meds they do haha. I'd give it 2-4 weeks depending on his pain tolerance.

Ribs for a RB are really tough to play through. Just about any other position other then RB you may be able to fight through but RB is just too dangerous. A rib can puncture a lung or even the heart or arteries depending on which rib. 4-6 IMO unless its a crack. Damn my team is just falling apart.

I had several bruised ribs before and a have pretty good pain tolerance, and it was unbelievably painful...to even breathe.  Coughing? Ugh.. I can't imagine how painful it is to suit up, and be huffing and puffing with broken ribs.  I can't see how he suits up next week unless he's on some of that good-good.
