Giants New York Giants Week 1: First Look at Tennessee Titans’ Offense
Feature (Series) - September 7th, 2022
“Whereas the Giants are just starting their journey back to relevancy, the Titans have chugged through their own difficult process to find themselves as one of the rising contenders in the AFC. After eight years of mediocrity dating back to 2008, the team has spent the past six seasons above .500, including two AFC South titles and four postseason appearances.
Last season, despite riding heavily off the strength of their defense (ranked 6th in points allowed and top five in stopping the run game), Tennessee’s offense ranked 15th in points per game (24.6 average) and scored at least 25 points in nine of their regular season matches. Much of that production was credited to the dominant run game, led by running back Derrick Henry, who helped the Titans’ backfield tally 14 touchdowns, the third most in the league.”
The first installment of my 2022 regular season-long assignment previewing the offense of the 18 opponents on the New York Giants schedule. Each covered the quarterback, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, and offensive line and touched on stats, skill sets, and intangibles that could cause trouble for the Giants defense.
