Chang passes for 2 TDs in Rhein Fire loss

Associated Press

Former University of Hawai'i quarterback Tim Chang was impressive, despite the Rhein Fire's 16-14 loss to the host Frankfurt Galaxy in an NFL Europe football game Saturday.

Chang was 15 of 19 for 170 yards and two touchdowns for the Fire (5-3).

David Kimball made a 23-yard field goal with 2 seconds left to give Frankfurt the victory.

Former Montana quarterback Craig Ochs was 18 of 32 for 171 yards and a touchdown, and Roger Robinson gained 144 yards on 20 carries for the Galaxy (6-2).

The Galaxy meet Amsterdam (6-2) this week in a battle of the two teams atop the standings.

Chang, who plays behind Rhein starting quarterback Drew Henson, has completed 38 of 63 passes for 495 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions this season.
