Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips has already decided on ILB Bradie James as the Texans' signal caller on defense. James, familiar with Phillips' scheme from their Dallas days, is locked in as the starter next to Brian Cushing. "He's the signal caller," Phillips said of James. "He calls all the signals and all the audibles. The guy is a field general. ... I don't see much difference in him than a year and a half ago."
