Season 5, Week 5: 2-2 Des Moines visits 1-3 Philadelphia

Aargh. Fumbles on special teams. A missed FG. The Eagles running out 4 minutes of clock at the end of the fourth. And a running game that continues to disappoint.

QB Dakota Corriveau just isn't the kind of elite QB who can take a team on his shoulders and carry them to victory when he can't even get 60 yards of rushing out of his teammates. Another close loss, 23-20.

Season 5, Week 6: 3-1 Giants come to 2-3 Des Moines

In a game that was shocking devoid of big plays by either squad, it was all about field position and chipping away at the opposition. Dragon RB Drake Boyette finally provided some ground support with 73 yards and a score, and P Rick Clark nearly won POG with brilliant booting. In the end, however, it was K Alexis Galloway, whose 5 field goals made the difference in this victory, 22-16.
