Cowboys' Ezekiel Elliott: Career-high in yardage versus Packers

Elliott carried 28 times for a career-high 157 yards in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Packers.

Analysis:

The game featured a clash between the NFL's top rushing attack and the defense that has been stingiest against the run this season, but the former prevailed thanks to Elliott, who gashed the Packers repeatedly as the game progressed, including a long gain of 29 yards. Elliott now leads the league with 703 rushing yards through six weeks, including an average of 142.5 over his last four, and he is 116 yards ahead of his nearest competitor as of Sunday. He has already carried the ball a league-high 137 times as well and will use the bye week to rest up before resuming his role as one of the league's busiest backs in Week 8 versus the Eagles.
