Browns vs. Cowboys: Keys to the Game

1. The Browns defensive line and linebackers need to limit Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Ezekiel Elliott behind what’s widely considered the best offensive line in the NFL. Elliott has gained 799 yards on 159 carries and scored five touchdowns on a team that has won six games in a row. Elliott is averaging 5.0 yards per carry behind linemen Tyron Smith, Ronald Leary, Travis Frederick, Zack Martin and Doug Free. The Cowboys lead the NFL in rushing yards per game at 164.9.

2. Look for the Browns to get the passing game going with rookie Corey Coleman back to complement Terrelle Pryor.
