Sam was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week today. He averaged 52.5 a punt with a long of 72. It looks like the Lion's "gamble" to use a 5th round pick is paying off. Of course we all knew that would be the case!

That's amazing! Hopefully he can have careers as nice as Royals and Alexander.

How's this for some real smart people:

Josh Katzenstein@jkatzenstein

Sam Martin, the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week, said he got hate tweets for his 72-yard punt that went into the EZ. People, the worst

72 yard punt. Even with it going into the endzone it's still a net of 52. And it was near the end of a close game. He was trying to prevent a possible return. Guess they were expecting him to stop it at the 5 from 67 yards away.

Just goes to show some people aren't happy unless they have something to complain about.

Dimwits! Like he knew it was going to be a 72 yard punt and would end up in the endzone...
I never cease to be amazed by the number of vacuum-heads who make those kinds of comments.

He's obviously a professional who is unable to stop an oblong object on a dime. Cut him!!!

they got a pro bowl caliber punter, that has improved the position on the team, and looks like he is going to be their punter for the next 10 years, not bad for a 5th round pick!

These are probably the people who were mad they drafted him in the 5th round, and they're bitter that he has proved them wrong.

Well the Lions are in Michigan. I'll bet that is part of it.
