I don't think i'm playing the sicilian defense. I think i'm playing the najdorf but i deviate from the najdorf sicilian main line i believe, i don't move the queen properly, looking at sicilian defense najdorf variation i don't move the bishop like that.

Hello all
I've taken a liking to the Najdorf Sicilian and was hoping to gain some tips, tricks, tactics, ideas and strategies from you players.
My general strategy is to play the najdorf, castle and move the rook to e4 and maybe move the e pawn up a bit, and else than that to move the knights into better positions forward and open up lines for bishops. Here are my games and any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Also it looks like the dragon is very close to the najdorf is this true, i think i end up with a dragon like opening at the beginning?
