Brett Favre’s Consecutive Starts Streak

James Joyner | Wednesday, November 29, 2006

Rick Gosselin, writing before this weekend’s games, noted how impressive Brett Favre’s consistency has been:

Since Sept. 27, 1992, the Green Bay Packers have posted the best record in the NFL at 143-88. That was the day Brett Favre made his first NFL start at quarterback – and Favre has started all 230 of the Packers’ games since then.

[...]

Let’s put Favre’s 15 years of perfect attendance in perspective. Chicago has started 20 quarterbacks since September 1992. Houston has started the second-fewest – three – but the Texans have only been around since 2002.

Here’s a complete list (again, this was posted Saturday, before the Sunday and Monday games):

The number of quarterbacks each team has started in its last 231 games:

• Brett Favre Traded to New York Jets
