And that's what made the Dragons win on Sunday so meaninful.
The Dragons needed a win, and they needed it bad. A team predicted to win its division with ease was looking down the barrel of a 1-4 record.
But that was not destined to be. Brian Griese hada superb game and the Dragons defeated the Cleveland Browns 49-24 on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Charlotte.
Browns kicker Phillip Dawson opened the game with a 49 yard field goal. The Dragons then drove the ball to the Browns 4, but on 2nd down Brian Griese fumbled the snap and it was recovered by Browns D-Lineman, Nick Eason.
It looked like it was going to be another one of those days for the Dragons.
Browns QB, Charlie Frye, scrambled for 8 yards and then threw to WR Braylon Edwards for 20. But on 3rd and 2 Dragons Linebacker Dexter Coakley stuffed RB Rueben Droughns and forced a fumble, which was recovered by cornerback Charles Woodson.
The Dragons than ran the ball 8 straight plays, capping it off with a 4 yard TD run by Rookie Runningback Reggie Bush his 3rd of the year.
"It's funny," Bush said of the play, "I thought it was gonna be a play-action and than Brian was going to rollout to the right, so when he put the ball into my hands I was a bit startled. Luckily, Chris(Liwienski) had made a hole, so I just ran through and ended up scoring."
"I'll have to make sure to take him out to dinner sometime," Bush said with a grin.
The Dragons came back with another stop, about a minute before the end of the 1st quarter. Greg Ellis sacked Charlie Frye on 3rd and Goal, forcing the Browns to kick the chip-shot field goal.
The Dragons, with the help from an interception from Dexter Coakley, scored on a 6 yard Touchdown pass to Issac Bruce.
The Browns countered, though, with a 2 yard TD plunge by Droughns, set up by a 76 yard Kick Return by Antonio Perkins.
"Our Special Teams was dissmal," said Coach Harvey Wallbangers,"We need to work on that. Games our sometimes decided by special teams, and in those situations we want to end up winning."
Charlie Frye ran in for the two point conversion, tying the game at 14.
The 3rd Quarter was equal for both teams. Braylon Edwards hauled in a 14 YD Pass for a TD, as did Dragons receiver Reche Caldwell, with a 2 YD TD grab.
The 4th quarter was what set the teams apart.
The Dragons exploded for 4 Touchdowns in the 3rd Quarter. A 2 Yard Run by Thomas Jones, a 32 Yard Catch by Terrel Owens, a 79 yard INT Return by Dexter Coakley, and another TD catch by Owens, this one for 15 yards.
The end result; a blowout win over the Browns.
Brian Griese did amazing, stepping in for the injured Daunte Culpepper. 13 of 19, for 4 TD and 0 INT. This possibly sets up a QB Controversy, with Culpepper playing average this season, and Griese playing very well over the last two games.
"You know, that's for the coaches to decide," said Griese of the situation, "My concern is helping this team win, whether it's from the sidelines or the field, that's my job. Of course I'd rather help from the field, but again, that's not my deceision."
Coach Wallbangers had this to say, "I'll deal with that matter later in the week. Right now I'm just enjoying this win. Our offense looked great today and our defense came up with stops and turnovers in crucial situations. I'm proud of this team. We needed this win, in terms of morale and in terms of the standings."
And thank God they got it.
:shock: :shock: :shock: MUCK :shock: :shock: :shock:
WE SUCK!!!!!
The Browns just sucked more.
2-4 in this division. That says it all.

So did the Dragons file for bankruptcy or something? :D
I think the GM lost interest...
muck.
Evidently so did the hostile fan...
Anybody want to explain to me what this is?
Sure. Eons ago, when we were all still hanging out over at jso, in the dog days of the offseason 2 years ago, there was heated discussion about how much our GM sucked (go figure), so I started a thread to ask what these guys would do if they were GM. After a few ridiculous answers, we decided to see what would happen if we formed our own expansion franchise. So we settled in Albuquerque, called ourselves the Dragons and went through drafting and free agency according to the rules of expansion, and according to the deals the players actually signed, went through camps and the season dealing with the problems, suspensions and injuries as the occurred to the players in real life, keeping the thing as realistic as possible. These 18 pages (along with a ton of pages that went poof into cyberspace and many pre-jso-hacker pages) are the end result. The roster is on page 1 and the staff is posted somewhere near the beginning of the thread.
