OXNARD, Calif. -- Ask anybody associated with the Dallas Cowboys what are offensive lineman Zack Martin's best traits and the usual superlatives are said.
"Holy cow," Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said this week. "To me, Zack: leader, tremendous command, just the toughness, and really, he raises the expectations of everyone around him. He does a tremendous job. He's not a loud talker. He's not a big rah-rah guy. He's not going to give any rah-rah speeches, but when he talks, when he's in the huddle, there's a presence that raises the level for everyone.
