More Improbable: DiMaggo's hitting streak v. Brees' TD streak

What is the average batting average? .250ish? Average number of at bats? 4 to 5?
Average number of TD passes per game by a single team? one? two?
just curious, if anyone bored thought this out.

DiMaggio. It is statistically less likely.

Joe's streak will never be broken, so I'll say his.
Not even close, imo

I'm not sure Brady doesn't break the same record THIS season.

DiMaggio did it when it was much easier for score keepers to "accidentally" call an error a hit.
just sayin

I mean when ever someone gets to 20 straight in baseball, they get extreme media attention. No one knows that Matty check down has a streak of 20

Dimaggio's hitting streak is way more impressive and improbable. A hitter usually gets 4-5 plate appearances a game while the QB gets to throw the ball over 30 times or in Brees' case 40 times a game.

Hitting streak. Nobody has even come close to it. Marino got within distance early in career and Brady is coming up now. Plus the game and philosophy has changed in football in the scoring areas.

nobody cares about Brees' "record" its a contrived record that Brees and hte Saints have drummed up to be something special. its meaningless and nobody really cares about it outside of NO

I think the better question might be was Johnny Unitas or Joe DiMaggio's streak better?
Times are different now. While what Drew has been doing over the last few seasons is amazing, TD passes are much more common in today's league than 50 years ago. It was harder for Johnny because of the way the game was played then and that it took more seasons for him to do it because of the shorter season.
DiMaggio's streak is still better and is one of the most unbreakable in sports IMO. I think Unitas' record would have been more unbreakable but the game has changed.

DiMaggio's and Ripken's records will never be broken. Ever.
