Not surprisingly, week ten brought us plenty of exciting action in the USFL. Even though the games were relatively meaningless (outside of the tank bowl), everybody brought the intensity to Legion Field.
Something that isn’t being talked about enough: @twll3 finished the @USFL‘s season second in rushing yards. Dude has been crushing it week in and week out. Averaging 4.9YPC on 12 carries per game.

Let’s take a look at where each team sits after week ten, as this will be the final full power rankings for the 2022 season.
#8: Pittsburgh Maulers (1-9)
Once a Mauler, always a Mauler! 🔨

For obvious reasons, Pittsburgh finishes the season in dead last. It’s unfortunate, because the team does possess plenty of talent, just like every other team in the USFL. However, they did not execute. Some of that can certainly be blamed on HC Kirby Wilson, who failed to lead the team to wins. His interesting approach (rotating QB’s for no reason, running the ball up the middle constantly) hasn’t worked too well.
What a second half it’s been for @iwh_v as he hauls in yet another score! 🔨

It’s a shame, because players like Vad Lee, Madre London, Delvon Hardaway, Boogie Roberts, etc. deserve better. But, at the end of the day, the Maulers won’t make…
