Bengals’ Higgins may try to play with broken rib

  1. I love that guys are doing their all to play through injuries and pain. I just hate that we are so banged up, especially considering the potential this team has.

  2. Mama Higgins needs to tell him to sit down! He gets hit hard, that rib can puncture a lung!

  3. Don’t do it Tee, we ain’t worth it at this point. Sit and get your bag somewhere else next year

  4. Higgins playing could just be the spark of toughness and motivation this uninspired and unimaginative team needs.

    Hope they can use it as momentum to absolutely bury the Cardinals and having a coming out party similar to the Saints game on the road last year.

  5. Goddammit — this is the time for leadership to step in and say its not OK to play. Same thing with Joe — you’re doing the worst of anyone in the NFL right now, so your backup certainly can’t be worse.

    Remember when that other player played through his injury and we were at 1-3? Oh yeah that was last week.

  7. I had the same thing from rugby and people who have a broken rib believe it’s mainly a pain tolerance thing and I frankly believed that too based on how it felt.

    It seems like an idle thing that hurts when you breathe heavily, especially during running but it is worse. My rugby coach played through one and got a nasty lung puncture.

    That ended up cutting his career short, and although unlikely, I see no risk why we gotta take this with Higgins rather than rest him a week, or even into the bye if necessary.
