Cursed, the discussiom was about how the Griffim could drive away a dragon, not if she could. We know she can. It says so in the profile. You can't get a more definitive answer than that and there's reallu nothing to be said there. However how she can do it isn't defined and can be subjected to discussion.

Also, just because they were given the job to guard teh epic loots by the gods, doesn't mean that they are supported by the gods. In the actual myth the griffins job was much the same. Guard the loot because the gods say so. But despite getting their marching orders from the gods, the gods didn't actually do anything to support the griffins in that goal. They just made the griffins and told them what to do. Which is why the griffins had to resort to tactics like exterminating all of the horses in the area to keep would be raiders from making their escape on horseback (which is why the 'prefers horse meat' bit is in their diet.)
