If the Dallas Cowboys or Seattle Seahawks are going to take flight in the NFL playoffs, they're going to do it on the ground.
Both franchises, who meet in Dallas on Saturday night, rely on their running games to get the job done.
The Seahawks led the league in rushing this season, and the Cowboys are led by running back Ezekiel Elliott, who won his second rushing championship in three seasons.
Both teams have stifling defenses, too, rounding out the time-tested recipe for solid postseason football: a defense and running game.
"We're feeling great," said Elliott, who will be running behind the Cowboys' original starting offensive line this season. "I believe we have the best defense in football, and a pretty good offense, a lot of weapons."
