Ezekiel Elliott’s second rushing touchdown of the day extended the Cowboys’ lead to 28-10 over the Browns in the third quarter. A Dak Prescott pass to Gavin Escobar later in the third made it 35-10.

The Browns have been generally defenseless. The Cowboys are over 300 yards of offense midway through the third quarter.

Elliott’s touchdown runs have covered 8 and 10 yards, respectively, and Prescott has thrown three touchdown passes, two to players who were unguarded in the end zone.

Elliott now has seven rushing touchdowns on the season, third-most in the NFL. He came into the game with a league-high 799 rushing yards and is on his way to his fifth game of 100 yards or more.

Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is over 100 yards receiving and scored the game’s first touchdown.
