Big Ben likely out 3 weeks

[NorthCoast]

One week after sustaining the injury, Ben describes the pain as still being 9 out of 10. Is that just Ben-speak? Perhaps.

I think 3 weeks is optimistic. I would not be surprised if Ben doesn't come back until the very last game of the season, if at all. It's just not worth further damage to his ribs.

Ben misses 2 games ... comes back for Ravens game in 2 weeks.
