Bradie James isn't a guy who blows smoke up the coach's caboose just for the sake of doing so. You might recall that James expressed skepticism after hearing that Wade Phillips declared he would change his ways. "Wade is different," James said on ESPN 103.3 yesterday. "Wade is really different, man." James is already sold on Phillips filling the defensive coordinator role. "This is the most I've ever talked to Wade Phillips," he said. "For whatever reason, he sits in our meeting room and this is his defense. I've learned so much in the last couple of weeks, just dealing with him during minicamps and OTAs."I think I've gained a whole new appreciation for him and the scheme, because there's no middleman now. When you had a defensive coordinator, you had Brian Stewart, so you had to go through him and you don't know how Wade is feeling. You've just got to take him for his word. Now you don't have that. You go straight to the horse's mouth, and he makes the change right here on the field and it stays that way. There's no uncertainty."
