It’s not quite Joe Namath-like, and it probably can’t even hold a candle to Rex Ryan’s wildness, but young Sam Darnold is projecting serious confidence about the future.
The young New York Jets signal-caller “absolutely” expects to win a Super Bowl one day.
“Yeah, for sure. Absolutely,” Darnold told the great Steve Serby of the New York Post when asked if he expects to win a Super Bowl.
Darnold, 22, represents the hopes and dreams of an entire franchise. Considering the NFL’s quarterback-heavy ways, it’s the USC product’s job to lift the spirit of an entire fanbase on a weekly basis.
