New York -- Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer has been named AFC Offensive Player of the Week.

The five scoring passes equaled former Bengal great Boomer Esiason's single-game franchise record, and was Palmer's second career POW in his seventh NFL season.

Other AFC weekly honorees were New England safety Brandon Meriweather (defense) and Buffalo punter Brian Moorman (special teams).

Meriweather made two interceptions in the game's first six minutes, returning one for a touchdown, in the Patriots' 35-7 win over Tampa Bay at London's Wembley Stadium.

It was the first POW honor for the three-year veteran from Miami-Florida.
