The dynamic 新人 running 支援する for the 長,指導者s is doing many of the things the 一時停止するd Cowboys 星/主役にする did in his debut last season, headlined by 主要な the NFL in 急ぐing.

But a New York 裁判官's 判決,裁定 Monday (疑いを)晴らすd the NFL to 施行する a six-game 中断 over 国内の 暴力/激しさ 主張s against the former Ohio 明言する/公表する standout.

Barring a late 合法的な 判決,裁定 , a 確かな ex-Toledo 支援する and Ohio native is left wondering "what if" as the 長,指導者s (6-2) try to 始める,決める a franchise 記録,記録的な/記録する with their 10th straight road victory.

"I watched Zeke a トン," 追跡(する) said of his 上級の year with the ロケット/急騰するs, when Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott, his fellow 新人, were 力/強力にするing the Cowboys to the best 記録,記録的な/記録する in the NFC.

"Dak played pretty 井戸/弁護士席 and so did he. I was able to watch and see all the 広大な/多数の/重要な runs he had. I 肉親,親類d of 手配中の,お尋ね者 to come in and have a year like he did his 新人 season."

Consider it done so far. 追跡(する) is the first NFL player with at least 100 scrimmage yards in each of first seven games and leads the NFL with 763 yards 急ぐing and 1,070 yards from scrimmage.

While he's not やめる on the 急ぐing pace of Elliott a year ago, 追跡(する) is another 選択 when quarterback Alex Smith already had plenty, 含むing All-プロの/賛成の tight end Travis Kelce. Smith is four touchdowns from tying Peyton Manning's 記録,記録的な/記録する of 20 without an interception to start a season while guiding the NFL's third-階級d 罪/違反.

"He's the engine behind that 罪/違反," Dallas coach Jason Garrett said of 追跡(する). "He's been one of those guys who's been 安定した for them, but also has made a lot of plays for them."

Things to consider in Kansas City's first visit to the $1.2 billion home of the Cowboys that opened in 2009:

REPLACING ELLIOTT: Alfred Morris, a 1,500-yard rusher as a 新人 in 2012, has been the backup all season to las t season's NFL 急ぐing leader. He 人物/姿/数字s to get the first 発射 at the 本体,大部分/ばら積みの of the work.

But Darren McFadden, a former KC 競争相手 in Oakland, is likely to get a few chances 同様に since he led the Cowboys in 急ぐing with his second career 1,000-yard season にもかかわらず just 10 starts in 2015. 棒 Smith is the wild card. He 殺到するd in training (軍の)野営地,陣営 to make the roster and has shown some big-play ability.

"All of them have got good experience now in the league," Cowboys 不快な/攻撃 調整者/コーディネーター Scott Linehan said. "That's a big part of feeling good about those guys stepping in after really not playing a whole lot up until now."

UP TO THE BOOTH: Tony Romo, the Dallas franchise leader in passing yards and touchdowns, will call his first Cowboys game as the lead 分析家 for CBS. A year ago, he was still 回復するing from a 支援する 傷害 that made Prescott the starter, a 職業 Prescott never gave up thanks to a franchise-記録,記録的な/記録する 11-game winning streak.

Romo was the backup when he was healthy again, then chose 取って代わるing Phil Simms と一緒に Jim Nantz over trying to chase an elusive 最高の Bowl somewhere else. "I am looking 今後 to the 生産/産物 会合," Prescott said. "明白に the first time with Romo will be 冷静な/正味の."

BULLDOG BUDDIES: Prescott could see a lot of an old friend in the backfield. He was チーム仲間s with 長,指導者s 防御の 取り組む Chris Jones at Mississippi 明言する/公表する. Jones was 現実に chosen ahead of Prescott in 2016, going in the second 一連の会議、交渉/完成する to Kansas City. Prescott was a fourth-rounder.

THE KICKER: If the game comes 負かす/撃墜する to field goals, give the 辛勝する/優位 to the 長,指導者s. Harrison Butker has connected on 18 straight 試みる/企てるs since 行方不明の the first of his career. The 好転 off the Carolina practice squad was 5 for 5 in Monday night's victory over Denver, 含むing one from 51 yards.

The Cowboys are without Dan Bailey, the most 正確な in history の中で kickers with at least 100 試みる/企てるs, because of a groin 傷害. マイク Nugent 行方不明になるd his first kick as the 交替/補充 last week again st Washington, a 49-yarder, but made the next four in a 33-19 勝利,勝つ.
