Even though Fred Jackson (concussion) has been cleared, C.J. Spiller will start Sunday's game against the Colts. At long last, coach Chan Gailey has realized that Spiller gives his team the best chance to win. "C.J. will start, but we're still going to play Fred," said Gailey. "It takes two. It does. So Fred will get quite a few snaps, but C.J. will start and get the majority of the snaps." Look for most of Jackson's reps to come in short-yardage situations or when Spiller is gassed. The revelation leaves Spiller as a clear-cut RB1 with upside and F-Jax as a mere flex play. Source: BuffaloBills.com Nov 21 - 1:08 PM

This is sure to mean one thing: Spiller gets hurt and Jackson has a huge day

I have them both and have Spiller starting, but about to drop Jackson for Hillman.

Fred was having the better day until he was concussed vs New England.

There is a reason why Spiller didn't separate himself from FJAX after Freddie was hurt earlier this season; FJAX is the better RB.
