Munich unleashes offensive onslaught, throttles Thunder in statement win

The Munich Ravens (2-0) solidified their European League of Football South Division dominance with a resounding 38-16 victory over the Berlin Thunder (1-1), riding a historic performance from quarterback Russell Tabor and receiver Malik Stanley to remain unbeaten.

Tabor-Stanley connection overwhelms Thunder
Tabor delivered a masterclass, throwing for 206 yards and 4 touchdowns while adding 97 rushing yards and another score on 7 carries. His chemistry with Stanley proved unstoppable, as the star receiver hauled in 10 catches for 122 yards and three touchdowns, dismantling Berlin’s secondary with surgical precision.

Ravens’ defense stifles ground game
Munich’s defense suffocated the Thunder, limiting them to a paltry 31 rushing yards and forcing three interceptions from quarterback Jakeb Sullivan (342 yards, 2 TDs). The loss of running back Gennadiy Adams to injury compounded Berlin’s woes, leaving Sullivan to shoulder an unsustainable pass-heavy burden.

Thunder’s aerial efforts fall short
Despite Sullivan’s 342 passing yards and receiver Bryce Goggins’ 110-yard outing, Berlin’s offense sputtered, converting just 3 of 10 third downs. The Thunder’s inability to counter Munich’s 196 rushing yards or protect Sullivan (sacked twice) underscored their disjointed execution.

Road ahead
The Thunder face a pivotal Week 3 North Division clash against the unbeaten Nordic Storm (2-0), desperate to address their ground game woes. The Ravens, meanwhile, enter a bye week before preparing for the Stuttgart Surge, their 2-0 start fueled by Tabor’s MVP-caliber form and a defense allowing just 11 points per game.
