Lets consider the facts:
1. All those that kill a Balrog are themselves killed in the process.
2. Every person who killed a Dragon survived.
3. Look at the types of people it took to kill a Balrog. Ecthellion, Glorfindel, and Gandalf. Two of the greatest and most powerful elves ever to exist and Gandalf, enough said.
4. Bard was able to kill Smaug, no offense to Bard but he's no Gandalf.
5. The Balrogs have quite an impressive resume of slain elf lords; Feanor, Fingon, Glorfindel, and Ecthellion. They took Maedhros and Hurin (the greatest mortal warrior ever) hostage. Dragon's haven't even killed any lords of men, let alone someone like Gandalf.

This is what I meant. Compared to Balrogs, Dragons go down without much difficulty. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
