COSTA MESA, Calif. -- As a quarterback at North Carolina State, a young Philip Rivers yearned to break his idol Brett Favre's all-time consecutive starts streak.
The durable Rivers will reach an impressive 200th consecutive start when the Los Angeles Chargers hit the road to face the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
Rivers has the longest active consecutive games streak in the NFL, and will join Favre, Eli Manning and Peyton Manning as the only quarterbacks to make 200 consecutive starts in NFL history when he takes on the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
