Three days after turning in the first 100-yard rushing performance of his career, Tashard Choice came up short of taking all the credit.
Choice, who finished with 100 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries in Indianapolis, admitted on Wednesday that rotating carries with Felix Jones helped keep him fresh.
"We both had a chance to get in the game and run the ball effectively," Choice said. "I like the way he ran the football and vice versa."
Jones finished with 83 yards on 22 carries in the Cowboys' third win in four weeks, defeating the Colts 38-35. The two were given a larger workload due to a left calf injury that has sidelined Marion Barber.
The result was the Cowboys rushing for a season-high 217 yards.
"We just had to tag team it because that was all we had," Choice said.
So, what professional wrestling tag team would Jones and Choice be?
"The Road Warriors, Hawk and Animal," Choice proclaimed.
The Road Warriors were a tag team in the American Wrestling Association, the National Wrestling Alliance and World Championship Wrestling in the 1980s. They were known for their face paint and football-type shoulder pads that had metal spikes poking out the top.
"I was (a big wrestling fan)," Choice said. "Back in the day I loved it. (That) was one (of my favorite tag teams). I liked the Road Warriors, the Steiner Brothers. I used to like The Rockers."
Choice said that he is the wrestler known as Animal and Jones is Hawk. Choice also noted that Jones knows nothing about the nickname.
That is one thing Choice will take all the credit for.
