Football: Martin showing flashes despite Chargers' struggles

Opposing running backs have had some interstate highway-wide holes to run through against the San Diego Chargers defensive line, but Western product Vaughn Martin is after all a rookie:
"Martin has seen more time than he expected to due to the injuries to Ryon Bingham, (Jamal) Williams, Jacques Cesaire and Travis Johnson. While he hasn't been a dominating force, he has looked like he fits in. Just like Nwagbuo, the coaching staff raves about Martin's work ethic and desire to get better quickly. These are the types of guys that, given playing time, it "clicks" for them in the second half of the season and they start playing like stars." — Bolts From The Blue

Good for him. He wouldn't help at all this year for the Stangs (ugh...). Weird how a guy can be a very good, not great player in the OUA and then play in the NFL. Can't teach size and athletic ability I guess.

Good post! Thanks for the information. Arsenal is my favourite club.
