Coach Talk

Aussig Gunners
You know, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches. We not only tripled Tachov Titans at QB (18.98 points to 6.16), we also thoroughly dominated them at RB (22.5 to 4.5).
Tachov Titans
All of the cake, none of the icing: The six offensive skill starters (three WRs, two RBs, one TE) on Tachov Titans combined to record a whopping 434 yards from scrimmage. Not one of those players was able to score a touchdown in Week 15.
