Per Schefter, the torn cartilage in Vick's upper rib cage near his sternum is more painful than fractured ribs. ESPN analyst Merril Hoge, who suffered both cartilage damage and broken ribs during his career concurred. As both men suggested, Vick will have trouble breathing, sleeping and going about regular everyday life this week. Worth noting: NFL Network insider Jason La Canfora reported earlier today that Kevin Kolb will start. ... Sounds like that will indeed be the case.
