As the playoffs near, Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott has more important goals in mind than individual milestones. That said, he wouldn’t mind 1,000 yards. He is still 85 rushing yards shy of 1,000 for the year. He averaged 5.3 yards per carry in the first five games, totaling 95 or more rushing yards in a three-game span from Week 3-5. But in the last 11 games, he averaged 3.5 yards per attempt, not totaling more than 52 rushing yards in a single outing.
