“Our quarterback position is what it is right now,” coach Ron Rivera told reporters during a recent visit to Fayetteville. “We’ve got to talk about where we want to head as far as the veteran backup is concerned.”

Thought we'd never hear this again with fox out the door? you thought wrong.

Listen to coaches around the league. They all use that term quite often. It is not unique to Fox simply we heard it ad nauseum because he was our coach.

We picked a bad day to have a bad day.

How sad is it that this article came outta the Shelby star!? I grew up there.... Sad sad city!

It's not that the phrase was unique to Fox, it's how often he used it (every interview)

Never been to Shelby, but I will always hate that place. Beat my football team in the State Championship 5 years ago. Total heartbreaker.

And yes, to the OP, the lockout does need to end because we definitely need something with some real substance to talk about. I'd at least like for our coach to be able to say hello to his players at some point.

Jim Mora used to say "diddly poo" a lot.

exactly.. sometimes there's only 1 answer to a question because people want to know what an answer cannot give.

OR, the coach/staff/player would be stupid to give it.. expect to hear it all your life.

Hilarious like getting punched in the face by Chuck Liddell is hilarious.

Most interesting thing is that Cam already has the starter job locked up before stepping foot in camp and they aren't even going to pretend like he has to earn it. They also don't seem to be thinking about competition for him either.

Don't know if that's a good or bad thing, just interesting.

I might be wrong but it seems like Bill Parcells started this phrase while coaching Dallas, he may not be the one who made it up but he's the first I remember hearing it from.

It would be awesome if we won our first game...I bet the huddle would be buzzing after that.
