New York, NY (Sports Network) - Houston Texans quarterback Matt Schaub, Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller and Buffalo's Leodis McKelvin have been selected as the AFC's top players for Week 11 of the NFL season.

Schaub picked up the offensive award after throwing for a career-high 527 yards with five touchdowns in Houston's 43-37 overtime win against Jacksonville. He tied Warren Moon for the second-most passing yards in NFL history, behind only Norm Van Brocklin's mark of 554 in 1951.

Miller garnered the defensive honor after racking up six tackles, three sacks and two forced fumbles in Denver's 30-23 win over San Diego. He ranks second in the NFL and first in the AFC with 13 sacks this season.

McKelvin was recognized as the top special teams performer after his 79-yard punt return for a touchdown early in the first quarter of Thursday's game against Miami propelled Buffalo to a 19-14 win. It was Buffalo's only TD of the game and McKelvin's second punt return for a score this season.
