The New York Giants begin a new era on Sunday afternoon when they head to Tennessee to take on the Titans in the 2022 regular-season season opener.

The Giants, led by new head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen, are looking to put the entire league on notice with a big win in Tennessee. This will be the first time we see these new systems in action against other starting units, as most of the preseason, the Giants only faced backups.

The biggest storyline for the Giants heading into this week and the rest of the season will be how this offense will look with some added talent and another new system. Quarterback Daniel Jones enters this season with his third offensive system in four years, not an ideal situation for many quarterbacks. However, there is a lot of optimism that even with an improved offensive line and healthy weapons (for now), Jones and the offense can put up respectable numbers.

The Titans are coming off a 12-5 season and the No. 1 seed in last year's AFC playoff field. Running back Derrick Henry had over 900 rushing yards and ten touchdowns last season in just eight games and is hard to stop. The Titans' run defense last year allowed just 1,438 yards on 3.9 yards per carry, second and third in the league, respectively.

Sunday also marks the beginning of the Brian Daboll era for the Giants, the 20th head coach in franchise history. Daboll’s first game as an NFL head coach comes against a familiar face in Tennessee Head Coach Mike Vrabel. The two were part of Bill Belichick's Patriots team from 2001-2006, with Daboll serving as a defensive assistant (2001) and wide receivers coach (2002-2006) and Vrabel playing linebacker.
