Panthers TE Greg Olsen
(on his one-handed catch in the second half)
“It was just a reaction to the situation. You don’t ever intend on going out there and trying to catch it with one hand. Sometimes you just have to react to the situation and try to make the catch any way you have to.”
(on if he was given a hard time after being stopped short of the end zone)
“Yeah, I said before that if the goal line was at the one, I would probably be leading the NFL in touchdowns. It doesn’t start at the one, unfortunately. I was glad that the next play Ed [Dickson] got his first touchdown of the year. I was happy for that. I don’t really get too wrapped up in stats.”
(on the crowd’s reaction to Newton’s post-touchdown celebrations)
“I thought a lot of the crowd was our crowd. At times it was pretty loud when we were on defense, and it was loud when we had good plays. I don’t know. I guess you would have to ask him. It seemed like a pretty standard demeanor from Cam (Newton) as far as I can tell.”
