Joe Horn Pepper Quotations

We can't roll our football helmets on the field and expect that because Katrina came through a part of Louisiana that people will feel sorry for us and let us win. I'm not going to run around trying to catch a pass and not expect (Carolina defensive end) Julius Peppers to try to knock my helmet off.

In their heart, I'm sure they will. But once that clock starts, I'm not going to run around and catch a ball and not expect Julius Peppers to knock my head off.

I don't expect ... the Carolina Panthers to feel sorry for us. In their hearts, I'm sure they will. But when that whistle blows, when that clock starts, I'm not going to run around and catch a football and not expect Julius Peppers to knock my head off.

I don't expect on Sunday for the Carolina Panthers to feel sorry for us. In their heart, I'm sure they will. But once that clock starts, I'm not going to run around and catch a ball and not expect Julius Peppers to knock my head off.

We respect the Carolina fans. I told Julius Peppers , 'Thank you.' That's the first thing I said to him. I didn't say 'We beat your butt.' I said 'Thank you very much for your support, I appreciate it.' Because that's what's important.
