Elliott and Pollard weren't heavily featured against the Bucs' veteran defensive front. Tampa Bay loaded the box, so Prescott and Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore focused on single-coverage matchups in the passing game against the Super Bowl champs.
The plan almost worked. The Cowboys had the lead in the final two minutes but lost on a last-second field goal.
Elliott showed off his versatility in that game, making several key plays as a pass protector.
And with more favorable looks from the Chargers on Sunday, Moore and the offense got back to their weekly goal of combining the run and pass.
"We wanted to get the run game going," head coach Mike McCarthy said, "to hopefully get some play-action pass off that. We didn't get to a lot of things we hoped to get to, but give their defensive front some credit. They do a good job of rolling the personnel groups in there. I thought the chess match, Kellen did a heck of a job calling the game."
