From ESPN: Horn wants to hit the century note

Horn
Two years ago, wide receiver Joe Horn had the best season by a Saints receiver with 94 receptions for 1,340 yards and eight touchdowns. Good, he thinks, but not good enough. He wanted 100 catches. So you can imagine how big a disappointment last year was. In 2001 Horn caught 83 passes, and the Saints finished 7-9. "When the team isn't winning, you always want the ball more because you feel you can help them win," he said. "It was frustrating. I got off to a slow start. The coaches decided we'd stress the running game with Ricky (Williams)." Horn is off to a fast start this season, having caught 14 passes for 228 yards. More important, the Saints are 2-0 heading into the Sept. 22 game with the Bears.

Horn should easily catch 100 balls this year. With defenses having to worry about ROY Stallwortlh on the other side he should see a lot of single man coverage. He is off to a fast start and should contiue the pace. Like I said earlier the only person who can stop Horn is AB if he starts to slide.
