With the 2022 NFL schedule being made official, we all learned when the NY Giants will be facing each opponent. The Giants will kick things off against the Tennessee Titans in Week 1 and fans can’t wait for things to arrive.
This is Brian Daboll’s first year as head coach for the Giants, meaning he will have to make a strong impression to not only the fans, but the front office as well. If Daboll wishes to make this strong impression, he must showcase his ability in a big way. A good way he can do this is by winning key games on the schedule that could show the Giants potential ability as contenders. In this piece, we take a look at five must-win games for Daboll and the G-Men.
Mark your calendars!!!

1. Week 1 at the Tennessee Titans
This is a “must win” game for the simple fact that it is the first contest of the season and there’s going to be plenty of eyes on Daboll and Co. The best way to start any season off, whether it be a rebuilding one, or one with the idea of contention, is with a victory, period.
While the Tennessee Titans are certainly not an easy team to beat, as they have they have arguably best running back in the league in Derrick Henry, plus a very solid defense. We believe there is a chance that the NY Giants can pull off the upset and start the season off 1-0.
If Daboll can manage to pull off an upset like this in Week 1, not only will it give the Giants a ton of momentum heading into Week 2, but it will also show that the Giants could potentially be a serious team this campaign. Daboll has the potential to make a very strong first impression among the fans and the front office in Nashville.
