Bosa brothers lead Players of the Week

There are perhaps no football parents more proud than Mr. and Mrs. Bosa right now. Their oldest and youngest sons, Joey and Nick, were both named Defensive Player of the Week in their respective conferences for Week 8.

Nick Bosa, the San Francisco 49ers rookie pass-rusher, was already named DPOW in Week 5. The No. 2 overall pick had his best game yet in a 51-13 rout of the Carolina Panthers that saw him record three sacks. The Ohio State product also put his freakish athleticism on display when he picked off a screen pass and nearly took it to the house.

His older brother Joey Bosa, the fourth-year edge rusher for the Los Angeles Chargers, had a similarly productive day. The 24-year-old was in the Chicago Bears' backfield all afternoon, recording four tackles for loss to go with a pair of sacks during the 17-16 win.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner won AFC Offensive Player of the Week after rushing for a season-high 145 yards and a touchdown in a win over the Miami Dolphins.

Green Bay Packers tailback Aaron Jones took home NFC Offensive Player of the Week with a career-high 226 scrimmage yards to go along with two touchdowns in a victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

Indianapolis Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri connected on field goals of 55 and 45 yards before nailing the game-winning 51-yarder against the Denver Broncos to earn AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

Minnesota Vikings kicker Dan Bailey went 5-for-5 on kicks (four field goals, one extra point) in a win over the Washington Redskins to grab NFC Special Teams Player of the Week.
