Hello Nathan,
I downloaded a few of your NFL csv files for 2011 and perused them. I found them most interesting and was wondering if you would allow direct access to your one drive from excel.
Thanks
Rich
You are awesome! Did you collect all of the data yourself using crawlers or was there another source that you pulled it from i.e. yahoo or espn APIs?
And what a fitting coincidence that you happen to be a developer for the excel solver! Hahaha.
I manually copy-pasted from Yahoo Sports and cleaned it up in Excel. I only need to do it once a year, so it’s faster that way…
Is 2013 data available?
Yes – here is the 2013 data: https://nathanbrixius.wordpress.com/2014/03/01/2013-nfl-statistics-by-player-and-team-in-excel/
