Consecutive Starts

Getting on the field is becoming more difficult for Brett Favre on a weekly basis. He faces a huge challenge to play against the New York Giants and make his 297th regular season start. On the other end, Eli Manning will be making his 100th consecutive start. Between the two of them, is Peyton Manning with 204.

Tom Brady knows how quickly these streaks can end. His came at 111. He is in good company with Ron Jaworski (116), and Joe Ferguson (107) for quarterbacks.

It's interesting to look at other positions. DE Jim Marshall of the Vikings had 282 between 1960 and 1979. Recently retired punter Jeff Feagles holds the record with 353 from 1988-2009.

You can't beat kicker Morton Andersen for total games played with 383 from 1982-2004 and 2006-2007.

It's interesting to note the longevity of kickers.
