Colts at Bills: Week 1 Where to Watch
By Evan Reller
The Indianapolis Colts open up the 2015 season with a trip to upstate New York to face the Buffalo Bills. The Week 1 matchup is a classic test of strength versus strength at the Colts test out their new offense against one of 2014’s best defenses.
Both teams have a few question marks on the injury front.

The Colts will be without cornerback
Greg Toler(neck) and running back
Vick Ballard(hamstring).
Robert Mathiswas officially listed as questionable (which considering he’s less than a year from tearing his achilles is a good thing), might suit up today.
The Bills won’t be missing any significant players due to injury, but have a few players coming back who won’t be 100 percent. Running back LeSean McCoy practiced for the first time in weeks due to a sore hamstring and has admitted that he won’t be a full strength. Wide receivers Sammy Watkins had a bad hamstring earlier in the preseason, but has been a full go at practice for the past two weeks.
The Bill will be without premiere defensive lineman Marcell Dareus, who is serving a one game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. The Colts dodged a bullet as Dareus finished last second on the team in sacks.
