When the Cowboys have gained momentum in 2022, it’s turned into an avalanche. The Colts are the latest to get caught in it. After cornerback DaRon Bland’s first interception of the night led to a score, the fifth-round pick decided it wasn’t enough.
Bland was in coverage on the clearly larger Ashton Dulin and he ripped the ball away anyways for his second interception of the night. Following the score, Dallas kept their foot on the neck of Indianapolis. Quarterback Dak Prescott targeted wide receiver Noah Brown on the third play of the drive and a defensive pass interference set up the Cowboys in opposing territory.
With the game already decided, the fans were still hungry. As Dallas neared the end zone, chants of “Zeke” were clear on the broadcast and the team entertained it. Running back Ezekiel Elliott added to the dominant night with a touchdown run but the highlight was what followed. A week after the viral tight end celebration at The Salvation Army kettle, Prescott and Elliott joined the fun with a jack-in-the-box celebration.
The fans chanted for Zeke. And he delivered. @EzekielElliott
