Terry McCormick details Mike Munchak's efforts to mold this team to his own vision for how to win in the NFL.

 It's still early, but Cortland Finnegan is already proving himself to be the veteran Titan who has improved the most under the new coaching staff. After leaving camp for a few hours over the final year of his contract, Finny has been elected captain by his teammates and put up an inspired performance this past Sunday.

 Derrick Morgan was impressive in his return to the gameday roster.

 Matt Hasselbeck has been a great fit in Chris Palmer's scheme so far, and he looks primed for a career revival if he can stay healthy.

 Jeff Fisher spent all of last season promising to get Javon Ringer more reps, but it's Mike Munchak who seems ready to make it actually happen.

 There are still a few tickets available for the Titans' match-up with the Broncos on Sunday, which is very unusual (though I wouldn't read too much into it at this point).

 One change Munchak has made since he took over is fining players for various infractions during the week of preparation.

 Chris Hope is expected to practice this week, but he's not a lock to start on Sunday. Given how well Jordan Babineaux played on Sunday, the coaching staff surely feels no need to rush Hope back from his shoulder injury.

 Jeff George wants to play for the Colts again.

 Jeff George probably has a better shot at starting a game this season than Peyton Manning. If Manning were anywhere near healthy he wouldn't be flying to Europe for unproven stem cell therapy injections. That's a desperate move that just shows how far away he is from being ready to pull the Colts from the bowels of the NFL.

 Injuries forced the Broncos to play Tim Tebow at WR for a few snaps last week, which temporarily gave them the highest character WR corps in the AFC.

Nice headline.
