Streaks compared and adjusted by era
I agree with a lot of this reasoning. His summation is that it would take a 63 game streak today to equal the 47 game streak back in the late 50's. I would tweak it down a bit for one other factor today not mentioned. That is, the size, skill, and athleticism faced today. Unitas had quite an advantage in the sense of how unsophisticated defenses were and the great advantage the receivers had in skill sets.
63 seems no less attainable than 47 either with the roll the Breesus has been on.
