The extra day couldn't save him. Consecutive games started streak ends at 297.

Game is listed as a "sell out". All of the allocated free tickets have been spoken for.

I like him too and think he gets a bad rap because of the media making a story out of basically a guy not wanting to quit a game he loves

An amazing record.....would be even more amazing if Peyton Manning wasn't more than 2/3 of the way to breaking it.

I'm still taking Cal's streak...but 297 is unbelievable for sure.

I don't get why people hate him so much. He's not my favorite player ever but the dude just likes to play football and he still can. He hasn't played well this year but the Viking's problems go a bit further than just Favre.

I don't think Peyton will play to 39

Peyton needs almost six more years of not missing a game to get it. I don't see that happening.

You don't really hear talks about it, but I don't think Peyton is going to play more than 4 more seasons

I think Peyton can play a while long because he doesn't really take a lot of shots. He does a lot of quick throws and then takes sacks.

I didn't care one way or another about Favre till the retire/unretire/retire/untire, lets wait till training camp is over till I come back crap.

Oh, and the fact that he's a grandfather and texts pics of his dick qualifies him for my hate list.

The streak is a joke. He should have been benched at least 3 different times in the past 5 years.
