The NFL's leading rusher, Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott, continued his onslaught on the history books Sunday afternoon against the Green Bay Packers, which had the No. 1 rushing defense in the NFL entering the game.

The Cowboys won, 30-16, and the former Ohio State running back played an integral role. 

Elliott finished with 154 yards on 27 carries (long of 29). He also added two receptions for 17 yards.

Most impressively, he became the first rookie in NFL history to rush over 130 yards in four straight games.

The 5-1, NFC East-leading Cowboys are off next Sunday.
