An introduction to working with nflscrapR data in Python

nflscrapR Python Guide

This is an introduction to working with nflscrapR data in Python. This is inspired by this guide by Ben Baldwin.

Using Jupyter Notebooks which come pre-installed with Anaconda is typically the best way to work with data in Python. This guide assumes you are using the Ananconda distribution and therefore already have the required packages installed. If you are not using the Anaconda distribution, install numpy, pandas, and matplotlib.

Once Anaconda has been downloaded and installed, open the Anaconda Navigator. Click launch on the Jupyter Notebook section which will open in your browser.

Collecting and Cleaning Data

There are a couple ways to get nflscrapR data. While you don't necessarily need R for historical data, it is necessary for getting data that has not been uploaded to github. My preferred process is to get data u

Simple guide for using nflscrapR

Basic nflscrapR tutorial

I get a lot of questions about how to get nflscrapR up and running. This guide is intended to help new users build interesting tables or charts from the ground up, taking the raw nflscrapR data.

Quick word if you're new to programming: all of this is happening in R. Obviously, you need to install R on your computer to do any of this. Make sure you save what you're doing in a script (in R, File --> New script) so you can save your work and run multiple lines of code at once. To run code from a script, highlight what you want, right click, and select Run line. As you go through your R journey, you might get stuck and have to google a bunch of things, but that's totally okay and normal. That's how I wrote this thing!
