NFL via Getty Images(DALLAS) — DeMarco Murray continues to lead the charge as he rushed for his seventh straight 100-yard game.
In doing so, Murray broke Jim Brown’s 56-year-old record of starting a season with six straight 100-yard games.
The Cowboys continue to showcase a balanced offense that they have lacked in recent years.
Tony Romo tossed three touchdowns on 279 yards passing, completing 17 of 23 passes. Second-year tight end Gavin Escobar reeled in two of Romo’s touchdown passes. Dez Bryant is still a man on fire as he racked up 151 yards receiving.
After a scare in the second quarter in which Murray appeared to injure his ankle, he finished the day with 128 yards and one touchdown.
Eli Manning put forth a valiant effort but it would not be enough to outduel Dallas. Manning threw for 248 yards and three touchdowns. Rookie receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. continues to live up to his first round draft status as he hauled in two of Manning’s touchdowns.
The Dallas Cowboys are now at 6-1 and host the Washington Redskins on Monday Night Football next week.
