Why teams shouldn’t blitz Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr

Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr has his best game of the 2026 season against Miami, who tried to pressure him all game.

That turned out to be a bad move, and the Hurricanes should have known it was. On Monday, Underdog CFB shared Carr’s 2026 stats when blitzed, and it is elite. He’s had 100 dropbacks this year, completing 71 of his attempts, easy math for 71% completion, amassing 829-yards. What’s even more impressive is that Carr has 11 touchdowns to zero interceptions, showing that the added pressure doesn’t phase him at all.

It will be interesting to see how teams approach stopping Notre Dame’s offense for the rest of the season, as the run game has come around with Nolan James Jr. and Jonaz Walton, and the receivers have been solid targets for Carr. That’s not even mentioning the elite offensive line, which has done a great job picking up blitzes and giving their quarterback a clean pocket.

This kind of production should catch the eye of multiple NFL franchises, as they’re always looking for their next quarterback. Carr has vaunted himself into the Heisman Trophy conversation, and could rise even more on draft boards with his continued elite play.
