Um, we differ on the hit, but then, so did the announcers. So be it. As far as the ribs, they might have been a bit cracked before, but being landed on that way could certainly have made them much worse. He is not going to want to cough or deep breathe and is going to have to (I know, I'm a nurse and that's what we tell people with those conditions they have to do to avoid infection/pneumonia!) and is not going to be a happy camper for a bit. Fortunately the backups are decent and it's a reasonably light schedule.
