The game could not have started off worse for the Dallas Cowboys in their Week 2 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Thanks to a number a fumbles and a failed fake punt, the Cowboys were actually lucky to only be down 20-0 entering the second quarter.
Things started to get fixed before the quarter break, as the Cowboys started their drive at their 25, trying to find some semblance of footing. They found it, thanks to the run game and Ezekiel Elliott, as the All-Pro runner touched the rock on seven of the team’s 11 plays, including crossing the final yard into the end zone to trim the lead to 20-7.

Elliott, who had two fumbles in the first quarter, seems to be trying to regain the touch he showed in the first contest. On this drive, he played with calm and patience, weaving his way through the hole as Dallas tries to claw their way back into the game.
Ezekiel Elliott knocked Damontae Kazee into the concussion protocol. I'm not kidding.
Kazee is being evaluated.
