It appears Smith may have indeed forced Jake's release..

Smith is getting older and knows his time in the N F L is getting shorter.

Steve has been hurt by a poor offense passing game last few seasons.

Which hurts his overall stats

Will Steve ever make the H O F ?

I say the last few seasons and lack of a Super Bowl win have hurt him.

So I could see what Zod said .

Steve wants a Q B that can get him the ball for stats

And a legit chance at a Super Bowl

Time is ticking on Steve

Yeah, he probably secretly wanted Jake and Fox gone. Jake will do. Fox wasn't axed, just "forced" to change his way of thinking when it comes to certain players and positions.

In the end, it doesn't make a difference if Smitty had anything to do with it at all, as long as we see progress.

Which is why I started my "as good as gone thread". He has few years left and a lockout takes one of those away. If Carolina is setting the stage to fully rebuild under a new coach in 2012......why wouldn't Smitty ask the team to let him go (kinda like Tony G) to try to achieve his dreams.....while Carolina rebuilds his last 2-3 years he can play the game. I still think people need to be ready for this to be Smitty last year.......especially if the current trend continues.

Why can't you guys separate Steve Smith the athlete from Steve Smith the person? I don't think anyone on here would argue that he is anything but a premier athlete, especially for his size. The guy is literally juiced up, not on roids, but on old fashioned rage. He's a throwback football player.

But to then say things like "Steve Smith is a class act" or "Steve Smith deserves this or that" is laughable. Steve Smith is an absolute turd of a human being. Does he do nice things for lower income kids? Yes. Does he say funny things sometimes? Uh huh. But he treats so many people like crap for the worst of all reasons...because he can. Teammates. Staff. Fans. Reporters. People who do him favors because he's Steve Smith.

You're so damn wrapped up in your 89 jerseys that you refuse to accept that the same traits that make him stand out on the field also make him hard to stand off it.

Have you forgotten that Jake was one of the teammates who stood up for him when he punched Ken Lucas? Or that Jake has never said a bad word about him when reporters went fishing for one?
