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

I heard Pep say that he would have signed here if he would have known we were going to cut Jake....

You know Peppers? If that's the case, then he's not very smart given that he just signed with a team that starts a younger version of Jake.

So I have asked around a bit and all indications are pointing to it being very possible that Smith demanded a trade should Delhomme be the possible starter this season. Since this conversation would have happened between 2 people who would never come out and say that it happened, this is all based on 3rd parties that one of those members spoke to.

We all know Smitty is probably the most competitive person in the NFL. I can definitely see his frustration if Jake was going to again be the QB and unable to throw anything over 15 yards. Smith only looked like himself once Moore took over and began to hit his stride. It is in fact in Smitty's best interest not to have Delhomme start, so can you really blame him?

Discuss....

well said Zod

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
