Season 4, Week 6: 1-3 Dragons visit 3-2 Green Bay

With Minnesota underperforming again, Green Bay sits atop the division. At home, they're always tough. The Dragons returned almost everyone from injury, including TE Kelvin Satterfield. Would it provide a spark?

Not for the offense. Even coming out of the bye, the Dragons looked awful. So, however, did the Packers. It came down to a slugfest, as neither offense could muster an attack, and the Dragon defense scored both a touchdown and a safety.

Somehow, when the dust settled, and two proud defenses finished picking the offenses out of their cleats, the final score showed a Dragon victory, 12-5. What is this, baseball?

Season 4, Week 7: 2-3 Dragons travel to 3-2 San Francisco

Turnovers. Hate, hate, hate turnovers. The Dragons outplayed the 49ers, young DE Elias Reese added another pair of sacks (DROY candidate?), but Corriveau lost 2 fumbles and tossed two more picks, costing the Dragons the game. Despite finding good chemistry with WR1 Miles Kinney and TE Kelvin Satterfield catching his first TD since return from injury, Des Moines suffers another close loss, 23-17.
