Moorman gets ST honor

Bills punter Brian Moorman was named AFC special teams player of the week. Moorman punted eight times vs. Carolina for a 43.5-yard net average and put four punts inside the 20 yard line. Moorman ranks fifth in the NFL in net average at 41.1 yards. Oakland's Shane Lechler leads at 45.0. Moorman needs to build up his stats the next several weeks because his numbers usually take a hit the last month of the season punting in Buffalo's weather. He catches a bit of a break this year because he's indoors on Dec. 3 in Toronto and he's indoors on Dec. 27 at Atlanta.
