Notre Dame vs Miami: Hurricanes Will Dare CJ Carr To Win Through the Air

CJ Carr can be a star right away

CJ Carr's most natural football gift is his arm and ability to make every throw a great QB needs to make. The Miami matchup will give him every opportunity to show America why he won this starting job and was such a highly prized recruit.

Notre Dame has not had an electric and dangerous passing game in recent years. The Irish have not had an ideal WR roster and haven't featured QBs in the Freeman era as of yet, who offer downfield passing as a top dangerous option.

Combining this knowledge with the fact that the reviews on Carr's fall camp were mixed at best, Miami will dare Carr to throw the ball down the field; it's on him to make the Hurricanes pay for taking this approach.

Miami will enter this game showing little to no respect for the Notre Dame passing game. With decent offensive line protection and Carr doing what he does best, throwing to an improved WR unit, this could be a fatal mistake.

As CJ Carr progresses through his career and game film on him adds up, teams will defend him and Notre Dame differently. As of now, this film doesn't exist, and Miami doesn't believe the Irish can win through the air.

CJ Carr is more than capable of showing that this is dead wrong and making a splash in his first game as the starting QB.
