12/27/2006 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young, San Diego Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman and Houston kicker Kris Brown have been honored as the AFC's top players for Week 16 of the NFL season.
Young kept his team in the playoff race with a pair of touchdown passes and a rushing score in Tennessee's 30-29 victory over Buffalo. The rookie is 8-4 since taking over as the starting quarterback for the 8-7 Titans.
Last April's No. 3 draft pick completed 13-of-20 passes for 183 yards without an interception against the Bills to take the offensive award for the week.
Merriman earned defensive honors for the second time in his career, as his three sacks helped the Chargers notch a 20-17 victory at Seattle. He became the second San Diego defensive winner this year, joining Jamal Williams in Week 5 and his selection gave the Chargers a player of the week for the third consecutive time as LaDainian Tomlinson had taken the offensive award each of the past two weeks.
Brown captured his fifth career special teams award and third with the Texans, as his 48-yard field goal on the game's final play helped Houston earn a 27-24 win over Indianapolis. He also kicked a 42-yard field goal earlier in the fourth quarter, as the Texans beat the Colts for the first time in 10 all-time tries.
Other nominees for the top offensive player included Houston running back Ron Dayne, who posted a career-best 158 rushing yards and scored a pair of touchdowns in the victory over the Colts; Tennessee running back Travis Henry, who ran for 135 yards in his return to Buffalo; and Jacksonville rookie running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who ran for 131 yards with a pair of touchdowns in a 24-21 loss to New England.
Defensive consideration went to Patriots safety Rodney Harrison, who returned to the lineup after missing six games and recovered a fumble in the closing minutes of the victory over the Jaguars; Denver cornerback Champ Bailey, who had an interception and a fumble recovery that led to 14 first-half points in the Broncos' 24-23 win over Cincinnati.
Also up for the special teams award was New York Jets kicker Mike Nugent, whose second field goal of the game was a 30-yarder with 10 seconds to play that provided the difference in a 13-10 win against the Miami Dolphins.
