The Rhein Fire made history this season becoming the first team to ever win back-to-back champions in the ELF. Led by head coach Jim Tomsula, the Fire went 14-1 en-route to another championship season in Düsseldorf.
A dominant two-year stretch
Over the past two seasons the Rhein Fire have gone 28-1, winning back-to-back titles. Their only loss during that stretch came week 3 of this year to the Madrid Bravos. To their credit, the Fire bounced back after that loss to win the rest of their games. They went through a early season stretch with several key players injured but were able to ultimately find their way and once again and win the championship.
