Orchard Park, NY (My Sportsbook) - Buffalo Bills running back Willis McGahee will be sidelined indefinitely with three broken ribs. McGahee suffered the injury in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Green Bay Packers. He left the game early in the first quarter after being tackled deep in Packers' territory. He was initially diagnosed with one broken rib, but later tests revealed more damage. "It is more extensive than we thought," said head coach Dick Jauron on the team's Web site. "It's not just the ninth (rib), but he also has cracks in the eighth and tenth ribs." Anthony Thomas is expected to replace McGahee in the Bills backfield. He had 95 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries against Green Bay. In other injury news for the Bills, wide receiver Josh Reed is also ruled out for Sunday game against the Indianapolis Colts with a bruised kidney that he suffered in Week 9's game.
