Dallas Cowboys are on fire as of late. Just like their rookie running back and quarterback. Their defense has stepped up in recent games, and they have found themselves at the top of the division. Even though some of their players are still out, they continue to win.

Ezekiel Elliot was just sensational against the Bengals. Another big match from Cowboys’ rookie, against the toughest opponent that they faced so far, was enough to power them to victory. Elliot had 15 carries for 137 yards and 2 Touchdowns. One of those runs was a 60-yard sprint to the end zone. Found the right hole, at the right time, and it was all over from that point on.

Elliot was also active in the passing game as he had three catches for 37 yards. His fellow running back was also good as he had six carries for 33 yards. Prescott threw for 227 yards and one TD to Cole Beasley. He also ran for one Touchdown in the first half.

You can easily give the game ball to the Cowboys defense. They were roughing Bengals up at the line of scrimmage, they got in their face and got the job done. Dallas was physical with Bengals receivers while putting up a lot of pressure on Andy Dalton. Easily one of the best performances by the defense in Cowboys recent history.

Cowboys are 4-1 to start the season after their 4th consecutive win. Elliot is leading the league in rushing while Prescott does everything needed for this team to be successful and he is also getting closer and closer to that record without an interception. The sky is the limit for these two young Cowboys.
