Hello! I've been working on publicizing helper code and data for nflscrapR, hopefully making it easier to use. My name is Lee Sharpe, and you can find me on Twitter at @LeeSharpeNFL. Feel free to reach out if you have questions!
I want to credit for inspiration and some of the code: Ben Baldwin and Sebastian Carl for creating nflfastR, as well as the founders of its predecessor nflscrapR: Maksim Horowitz, Ron Yurko, and Sam Ventura
If you are brand new to R, data analysis, and programming generally, I wrote a simple tutorial off some other data that will likely be less intimidating for many than the huge nflscrapR data set. Start here if that applies to you.
