EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. - September 9, 2009 Favre will make his 270th straight start when Minnesota plays at
Cleveland on Sunday. That will match what the NFL considers the
longest streak in history, held by former Vikings defensive lineman
Jim Marshall from 1961-79.
Favre said Wednesday he "absolutely" would sit out this season
if he's not healthy enough to suit up as Minnesota's quarterback.
The 39-year-old also said he "may not" be able to play in all 16
regular-season games.
Favre said he was willing to sit last year with the New York
Jets, and that he shared his concerns at the time with his coaches.
His poor performance in December was due in part to his injured
right arm.
