Texas – The game plan for the Cowboys going into their matchup with the Rams was
standard procedure: They wanted to run the ball

take advantage of their dynamic running back, and exhaust their opponent as the
game went on.That plan was executed, but unfortunately, the Rams were the ones
executing it. By the time the game was over it seemed that Todd Gurley was the
all-purpose, dynamic running back who was the biggest difference maker.The game
began about how the Cowboys would have hoped. The Rams didn look ready to
contend with a full game worth of Ezekiel Elliott, who had 45 yards in the first
quarter alone. The Cowboys dominated the time of possession 10:37 to 4:23.e only
had one possession in the first quarter,” Gurley, who had just 14 yards in the
first quarter, admitted. “Dallas was doing a great job.”But the Rams defense
didn get tired

and the Cowboys’ run game was far less effective in the final three quarters.
Elliott recorded only 11 rushing yards in the second quarter, 17 in the third
quarter, and 12 in the fourth quarter.
