Giants vs Titans Expert Picks & Predictions for Week 1 NFL Game

The 2022 NFL season is finally here and the Week 1 schedule is chock full of exciting showdowns. One of those games is an matchup between the New York Giants and Tennessee Titans.

Brian Daboll is now behind the Giants' bench, hoping to turn things around. His biggest challenge will be unlocking any potential that quarterback Daniel Jones has left in him. Hopefully, with an improved team, Daboll can pull off that feat.

On the flip side, the Titans hope to return as AFC threats now that star running back Derrick Henry appears to be healthy. He's the straw that stirs the drink in Tennessee's offense, so any future success hinges on his health.

Here's what projection models and experts across the industry have to say about the Giants vs Titans Week 1 matchup.
