City were worthy winners at Ashton Gate outshooting the visitors by 15 efforts to 9.
"Marvin has been a very good signing for us and he showed his quality in this game as well as his work rate," said Gary Johnson. "But it was a real team effort. We worked hard all over the park and a lot of players other than Marvin deserve to be on the score sheet.
"People keep asking me whether we can stay near the top of the table and all I am saying is that we will take games one at a time and see what happens.
"The lads have a belief and know where they want to go. At the moment they are doing us proud."
Tony Pulis watched in disbelief as Elliott scored from distance.
"When I had Marvin Elliott watched as a possible target I was told he didn't have a left foot. Today he goes and scores with it from 30 yards."
