In a battle of backup quarterbacks, Washington and Mike Hohensee came out on top. He threw 3 touchdowns in the victory. Meanwhile, the Federals defense held Herschel Walker in check. They allowed him only 85 rushing yards and no touchdowns.

To his credit, New Jersey back up Jeff Knapple threw two touchdowns of his own. But the Federals proved to be too much for the Generals. New Jersey continues to search for an offense to build around their young star, Walker.
