The New Jersey Knights looked good on their first game as an NFL team. The Knights ground attack seemed to be on as Justin Fargas and Adrain Peterson bashed through the Redskins line. The Knights air attack was there, however neither Kyle Boller or Patrick Ramsey solidified their claim to the starting QB role. This seems to be a competition which will last all of the pre-season.
Boller 9/14 87yards 0 TD 1 INT
Ramsey 11/18 115 yards 0TD 0 INT
The ground game scored all three of the Knights touchdowns, with Lamont Jordan scoring two goal line rushes.
The highlight of the night however was the emergence of Javon Kearse. Kearse who is primaryily going to be used as a back up came in in the third quarter and sacked the Rex Grossman not once , not twice, but four times. This has started talks that perhaps Kearse is still got alot in the tank.
The coach has stated that Kearse will play with first team on next preseason game. His health is the only worry for this team. If Kearse can stay healthy he could be a dominate force for the Knights.
Either way the Knights are now 1-0 in the AFC and showed that they can compete.
