The Dallas Cowboys took advantage of receiving the ball to start ā€œThursday Night Footballā€ against the Chicago Bears. They used their first drive to get six points, via running back Ezekiel Elliott.

The Cowboys got Elliott going early in the prime time event. He capped off a 17-play, 75-yard drive spanning 8:57 minutes with a two-yard touchdown rush. Watch the Cowboys feed Zeke below.

The Cowboys have struggled to get Elliott going as of late. Luckily, that didn't stop them from doing so on Thursday. On the first drive of the contest, the well-paid superstar tailback recorded eight rush attempts for 33 yards and the touchdown.

Dallas is entering must-win territory as they sit at 6-6. Though in control of the NFC East, with the reeling 5-7 Philadelphia Eagles trailing, they can't feel too confident about their record. A win over the fellow 6-6 Bears could help change that notion.
