NY/NJ Knights WLAF Run and Shoot Offense (1992) - Mouse Davis
The 1992 New York/New Jersey Knights were a prominent franchise in the World League of American Football (WLAF). Led by the innovative head coach Darrel Davis, the Knights employed a dynamic Run and Shoot offense, characterized by its emphasis on short and intermediate passes. This strategic approach, combined with a multifaceted lineup and skillful formations, contributed to the Knights' formidable performance in their final season in the league.
Notably, the Knights' offense was a force to be reckoned with, boasting an impressive average of 34.7 points per game, the highest in the league during the 1992 season. Spearheaded by the talented quarterback Kent Graham, the team thrived on precise passes and adept running plays, with Graham's dynamic leadership resulting in 3,092 passing yards and 28 touchdowns. The Knights also demonstrated a robust ground game, led by the prolific running back Derrick Brown, who accumulated an impressive 1,000 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Furthermore, the Knights' stellar defensive unit played a crucial role in their success, allowing a mere 23.3 points per game, the second-lowest in the WLAF that season. Linebacker Marlon Brown emerged as a standout performer, amassing 120 tackles and 7 sacks, earning him recognition as a first-team All-WLAF selection. Supported by a roster of skilled players such as safety Reggie Berry and cornerback James Howard, the Knights' defense effectively stifled opponents and cemented their reputation as a well-rounded and formidable force in the league.
One of the standout moments for the Knights came in Week 10, marked by an outstanding 47-0 victory over the Barcelona Dragons. This resounding win not only solidified the Knights' dominance on the field but also underscored their prowess as a team capable of achieving remarkable triumphs and leaving an indelible mark in the annals of the WLAF history.
