We’re previewing the USFL playoffs in Canton, Ohio this weekend with two great guests: Kosh Shepardson of Fantasy Pros and Jordan Dajani of CBS Sports. The Philadelphia Stars are facing the New Jersey Generals in a USFL North Division battle and the Birmingham Stallions are trying to make it to the USFL finals by coming out victorious in their South Division matchup against the New Orleans Breakers. We break down, analyze and give our thoughts on the two “heated” divisional rival games that comprise the 2022 USFL playoff slate. We also cover the recently announced USFL MVP and other “Top Awards” from the season including Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year and Coach of the Year. We also get Jordan’s thoughts on the USFL moving into the off-season and standout players he sees from the USFL transitioning to an NFL roster in the fall.
