In the playoffs, Favre stands behind only Joe Montana in pass completions, passing touchdowns, passing yards and passing attempts.

In addition, Favre owns a number of team records, having printed his name into almost every passing category in the annals of Green Bay Packers history, most recently setting the team record for consecutive completions with 20 on November 22, 2007, against the Detroit Lions. [cite web| url = http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter;jsessionid=63CAED1718F1DFF87E9F8B275C049EE3?season=2007&week=REG12&game_id=29355 | title = Favre, Packers hold off Lions | publisher = NFL.com| accessdate = 2007-11-22] With 38 "come-from-behind" 4th quarter wins & 2 more overtime victories, Brett Favre is the Green Bay Packers record holder and second only to John Elway's 47 4th quarter or OT "come-back wins", in NFL history.

Consecutive starts streak

Brett Favre started every game his team played from their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 27, 1992cite news| url=http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=279432 | title=200 reasons to admire Favre| last=D'Amato| first=Gary | work=JSOnline.com | publisher=Milwaukee Journal Sentinel| date=2004-11-28| accessdate = 2007-07-26] through the end of the 2007 season. He is currently in first place for the most consecutive starts by a quarterback in the NFL and one of only five quarterbacks to have started over 100 consecutive games in NFL history. Over the streak he failed to finish a game due to injury on only six occasions.cite news | url=http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikings/13785576.html| publisher=Star Tribune | title=Brett Favre, ageless wonder | first=Mark | last=Craig| date=2008-01-15 | accessdate=2008-01-16] Besides Favre, there is only one other active streak of 100 or more games, that is Peyton Manning. During Favre's consecutive start streak, 409 other quarterbacks started for other teams in the NFL,cite news | url=http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/packers/2007-favre-tracker.htm | publisher=USA Today | title=Favre tracker: Packers QB claims passing records in 2007 | first=Jeff | last=Hanisch | date=2007-12-31 | accessdate=2008-01-04] 11 of them being back-ups to Favre at one point. Among his former backups are: Don Majkowski, Ty Detmer, Mark Brunell, Steve Bono, Doug Pederson, Matt Hasselbeck, Danny Wuerffel, Aaron Brooks, and J. T. O'Sullivan. Two veteran backups to Favre never started another NFL game: Jim McMahon, and T.J. Rubley. The consecutive starts streak is widely considered one of the most notable streaks in sports, so much so that the Pro Football Hall of Fame has as an exhibit displaying the jersey Favre wore during his record breaking 117th consecutive start as a quarterback, and a section of their website devoted to what the Hall of Fame calls an "Iron Man".
