It was the first Pro Bowl selection for McBriar, a free-agent pickup for the Dallas Cowboys.

McBriar was an all-Western Athletic Conference punter in 2002.

Kreutz, a Chicago Bears center who played for the University of Washington, was named to his sixth Pro Bowl.

The Bears placed a conference-high seven players on the National Football Conference All-Star team that will face the American Football Conference All-Stars in the 2007 Pro Bowl 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 10 at Aloha Stadium.

Thirteen NFC players will participate in their first Pro Bowl, including Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, who has won six of his first eight career starts and guided the Cowboys to a playoff berth.

The San Diego Chargers had a league-high nine players -- the most in franchise history.

Nine members of the AFC roster are first-time All-Stars, including Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, in his first year as a starter, and three of his San Diego teammates. The Chargers own the conference's best record at 12-2.
