NFL Weeks 5-9

Week 5: Bye

The team’s bye week came along at the right time, allowing several players to recover from nagging injuries.

Week 6: Barnstormers (3-1) (-3) at Chargers (1-4)

San Diego outscored Iowa 9-0 in the fourth quarter to post a 28-22 victory.

Week 7: Barnstormers (3-2) (-7) vs. Broncos (4-2)

Denver running back Antoine Kolodzik rushed for 155 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Broncos to a 30-10 victory over the Barnstormers.

Week 8: Barnstormers (3-3) (-9) vs. Raiders (2-4)

Iowa running back Friendship Lofton rushed for 154 yards and a touchdown as the Barnstormers snapped a two-game losing streak with a 20-10 victory over the Raiders.

Week 9: Barnstormers (4-3) (-9) vs. Jets (1-6)

Iowa QB Roman Roberts connected with fourth-string wide receiver Louie Benson for a 57-yard touchdown pass with :33 on the clock, lifting the Barnstormers to a 34-31 victory over the Jets.

2/4 Season Review

At 5-3, the Barnstormers are just one game out of first place behind the Denver Broncos (6-2). Unfortunately, the team’s top wide receiver Jorge Ellison suffered a hip pointer in Week 9 and will miss the rest of the season. He will finish the year with 41 catches for 626 yards and four touchdowns in eight games.
