Dallas Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips says he is "not concerned" with reports wide receivers Terrell Owens, Roy Williams and Patrick Crayton complained to offensive coordinator Jason Garrett about the number of passes from quarterback Tony Romo to tight end Jason Witten.

"It's not anything serious," Phillips said. "We encourage communication."

Apparently, the receivers requested and got a meeting with Garrett to discuss the offense and how they are being used.

The head coach doesn't seemed bothered by it.

"It doesn't concern men," Phillips said. "Tony's the quarterback he's always going to take the blame."

His advice for Romo?

"I'd go with the guy that's going to be open. That's what we want him to do," Phillips said.

"The players know that he cares enough to take the blame for things and that's a big step because not every quarterback does that," he said.

Actually Crayton, Williams, and T.O. weren't complaining to Jason about the number of passes to Witten. Aaron have you joined the "hate squad" of reporters that twist the facts around to serve their own agendas? They each had a one on one meeting with Jason (it's called communication, not complaining). The reason for the meetings is to attempt to get the offense going in the right direction, so they can win more games. Please don't make something negative about every thing that happens with the Cowboys.
