When's the last time someone came close to Joe's hitting streak?
With much better pitching, situational pitchers, the intentional walk, rising strikeout rates, I doubt it ever gets broken.
Less than 1% chance.
With today's NFL and the emphasis on passing, that isn't a record that will last forever.

It will never be broken. No one even approaches it any more.

Because defenses haven't improved in the NFL, better athletes aren't playing on them, there are no situational pass rushers, etc...
That said, the hitting streak is the more difficult one, but not for the reasons that everyone is listing.

1978 Pete Rose at 44 games.

There is ZERO chance in our lifetime.
