Ezekiel Elliott Rips Up the Sideline for 85-Yard TD

This dude rolls into the pros straight out of Ohio State and is certainly queued up for Rookie of the Year.

Good Lord, Zeke the Freak. This dude rolls into the pros straight out of Ohio State and is certainly queued up for Rookie of the Year. Not to mention that he just might be the best running back in the NFL right now. It's a bit of a stretch to say he's the sole cause behind the Cowboys' 2015 swing from 4-12 to nearly doubling their wins halfway through this season at 7-1. But it's not too, too crazy to say that Ezekiel Elliott is carrying them right now.

Against the Steelers today, Dak Prescott—who isn't exactly crushing it—found himself at a sticky 2nd and 18, when he found a wide-open Elliott with a good few numbers between him and the goal line. But thanks to some solid blocking and the nitrous oxide in his heels, Elliott ran 85-yards to escape the Steel Curtain like a certain iguana we all know.

Let's see that again, shall we?
