Coach Talk

Rzeszów Giants
Hey, the key to football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a thrilling display from Ryan Tannehill, we absolutely dominated Phillies at the quarterback position this past week (37.02 points to 5.7). Tannehill went 21-for-27 for 273 yards and three TDs in a 46-25 triumph over the Lions.
Phillies
Happy holidays, Phillies! We hope the GM of Rzeszów Giants will send a thank-you card for the generous 114-point gift this past week.
