It’s official: Brett Favre starts for Vikings 10.31.10 at 2:56 pm ET
By Mike Petraglia

FOXBORO — The Minnesota Vikings announced shortly before 3 p.m. ET that there would be no changes to their starting offense, meaning Brett Favre will take the field and start at quarterback as they take on the Patriots at Gillette Stadium.

The quarterback will extend his starting and games played streak to 292 games, the longest in NFL history.

Favre sustained two breaks in the area of his left ankle when he was tackled from behind in Sunday night’s 28-24 loss to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
