Season 7, Week 9: 5-2 Dragons travel to 1-6 Chicago

Can you say, "Trap game"? After such a big victory last week and such a big game anticipated next week, a bit of a let-down might be expected against the lowly Bears. But this … this is a punch to the gut and a call for the guillotine, as Des Moines' lousy kicker has cost us another one.

The team's best rushing game to date saw both RB Douglas Flagg and RB Carlton Agree top 5 ypc, and WR2 Myles Kinney racked up 173 yards and a score in the air.

But K Alexis Galloway, formerly of Iowa State, was shank city. TWO missed field goals and a missed extra point doomed a solid day by both the offense and defense in a sucker punch of a loss, 9-10.
