Dallas Cowboys’ Ezekiel Elliott (21) evades pressure from Cincinnati Bengals’ Dre Kirkpatrick (27) and Vontaze Burfict (55) in as Elliott carries the ball in the second half of an NFL football game, Sunday, Oct. 9, 2016, in Arlington, Texas. They know a loss doesn’t move their position in the division or as a top team in the NFC.

Antonio Brown caught 14 passes for 154 yards and a TD, while Le’Veon Bell tallied 134 all-purpose yards and two scores for Pittsburgh.
