What’s a reasonable stat line for Carr in his first career start?
I expect us to lean on the run game early, mixing in a few deep shots to stretch the defense. The short-to-intermediate passing zone is where CJ could get himself in trouble by forcing plays, so I’d stay conservative there. Lower passing volume with a handful of well-timed big throws especially later in the game feels like the best formula. though that would probably play into what Miami expects so I figure Denbrock might not do that at all. Man, I want the game to start already.

Then again, I could see Raridan having a monster game.

No idea what to expect honestly, but really hope we start fast. As in scoring at least 3 on the first drive, The way that 2017 game got away from us so quickly still haunts me

I also think we’ll see a lot of Raridon, as well as Pauling. A healthy dose of J Love should be in every game plan.

I am hopeful that we can keep him around 25 attempts. A stat line of 16-25, over 200 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 INT feels about right and a recipe for a 10+ point win that ND is in control of throughout.

FYI I’ve got a fantasy draft before the game so I’ll be getting shit faced before the game. He better not have more than one incompletion or I’ll be lighting up the game thread.

I like those numbers for expected.

What would make most of us feel really good? 19-27 (70%), 240, 3 TDs, 1 INT

What's reasonable and expected? 17-27 (63%), 2 TDs, 1 INT or 23/35, 3 TDs, 2 INTs

More alarming metrics:
  • Sub 60% completion rate
  • 2+ INTs w/out 4+ TDs
  • 3.5+ seconds before release
  • < 180 yds passing

It's hard to really project without knowing the rest of the game. If we have a couple of turnovers giving us short fields or >300 yards rushing I wouldn't wet my pants over a sub-200 performance. Eye test will be more important than me. But to your point, if I had to guess just assuming how they will gameplan by making us pass the ball, I'm thinking he'll need a 240+ yard performance

If Carr throws multiple picks in the season opener, Freeman and Denbrock will be in quite the pickle.
I think all that matters is winning the football game. If Carr helps us do that, I don't care if he throws a pick or two.

Jimmy Clausen and Brady Quinn both threw interceptions. It's part of the job.

If a WR drops it and it gets picked off (like one of the THREE interceptions the beat has loved to talk about on Fall Camp day 1), do we bench Carr for Minchey?!

I’ve got a draft DURING the game. My league has four out-of-towners that will be in, and Sunday night is the only time slot that works for everyone.

If ND is playing well, my fantasy football roster will suffer.

If ND is playing like shit, my mental health will suffer more than normal as my friends will make it a nightmare worse than Gameday threads.

I usually start drinking heavier after the eighth round. I should have about a four hour break before the game which I won’t/might be drinking before the game.

I used to throw money down at the casino on ND under Kelly after the ff draft. Lost my ass with him at the helm on these game 1’s. Stopped doing it under Freeman. Everyone is welcome.

Does such a hell even exist?
