IRVING, Texas - Talk is cheap. But it may be subject to the same rules of supply and demand as everything else.
After the frustration of a 0-2 start left some Cowboys voicing complaints and airing them in a players-only meeting on Monday, the team is now closing ranks. Just as coach Wade Phillips didn't want to talk about his message to the team since Sunday's 27-20 loss to Chicago, no players would share what was discussed in their meeting.

"After that game, I was probably in a place where I didn't want to hear much," Spears said. "Talking has its advantages and disadvantages.
