The Buffalo Bills released the league’s oldest running back, Fred Jackson, on Monday in what many were calling a bit of a shock despite discussions to do so over the past six months.

The Bills line was still +3 against the Colts in Week 1 even though they are left with a riddled backfield marred with injuries.

LeSean McCoy (hamstring) remained out of practice Thursday. Bryce Brown (hamstring) and Bobbie Dixon (calf) returned to practice Thursday but were unable to play in Saturday’s preseason game. Rookie running back Karlos Williams has also been out.

Can you say Colts -3 and a blowout for Week 1?

While Gambling911.com has been bullish on the Browns over the past two weeks, action was balanced on this one with the line only moving up a half point over the course of the week, making this game less attractive in terms of a glaring "must bet" situation.
