Just Amazed
at how Romo was able to just hang in there with a broken rib and a punctured rib to come back and win this game.

Been said before ..
but that’s one tough son of a gun. Words cannot explain.

If this is true
It must be a very small pneumothorax or he’d be in the hospital right now with a chest tube. In the rest of us, we’d be told to take it easy and repeat with some x-rays later on. Unlikely they let Romo play with the condition and risk a more serious injury. Pneumothorax can be fatal.
I’m not a doctor, but my wife is. The above info is what she just told me.
