Donovan McNabb holds the record for consecutive completions with 24, but it was over a 2 game span. Brunell holds the record for 1 game. I think it's a little paraniod to label the mishap as more Skins shafting in the media.
But yeah, you'd think the TV network owned and operated by the NFL would know their own records, considering it tooke me 10 seconds to find these links online:
