Dallas Cowboys, Happy of Wade Phillips this NFL Season

The Dallas Cowboys are not on the same level with the Patriots yet.

Now that THAT is out of the way, yep, the Dallas Cowboys are off to one of their best starts in franchise history this 2007-08 NFL football season and you just know that they owe that to new head coach Wade Phillips.

Of course, the Dallas Cowboys are smiling. Yes, even controversial wideout Terrell Owens who, after tumultuous times in San Francisco and Philly, probably is happy about his team, his teammates and his season for a change.

''I can't say enough about what this coaching atmosphere has brought to this locker room,'' Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens said. ''I think every guy can share a little bit about what these coaches mean to them.''

Hell, Owens is so happy about this year's run that he has all praises for every coach in the Dallas Cowboys locker room.

''I can't say enough about Ray Sherman and the job that he's done with us as receivers,'' Owens said. ''You know, just communication, that's what it's all about. Just the philosophy and Wade and him coming in and treating us as men is very much appreciated in this locker room.''

At the other side of the ball, Dallas Cowboys defensive linebacker Greg Ellis agrees with the controversial receiver. With a 6-1 start, he should be right?

''The chemistry here is good,'' Greg Ellis said. ''The way Wade has chosen to run this team right now, it's working real well.''

''Some coaches like to create that barrier between coach and player and never have that line crossed. Some coaches say, 'OK, we're all in this boat together. We want to win. You win, coaches win, the whole organization wins.' We're now in that kind of system where the coaches and players are more willing to work with each other.''

That is if they start losing and Owens starts talking in a different tone.
