Sam Martin POTW
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.JTApps1 wrote:Sam was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week today. He averaged 52.5 a punt with a long of 72.

Re: Sam Martin POTW
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...firemoose wrote:How's this for some real smart people:

I never cease to be amazed by the number of vacuum-heads who make those kinds of comments.

Re: Sam Martin POTW
He's obviously a professional who is unable to stop an oblong object on a dime. Cut him!!! 
Picked up via free agency by the High Country All-Stars
Re: Sam Martin POTW
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!

Re: Sam Martin POTW
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.firemoose wrote:How's this for some real smart people:
