Features

• Retrieve and process NFL statistics
• Work with player and team data
• Build datasets for fantasy football analytics
• Support statistical modeling and analysis
• Easily integrate into Python workflows

Typical use cases include:

• Fantasy football projections
• Player performance analysis
• Historical stat analysis
• Data pipelines for NFL analytics
• Custom fantasy football tools

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/killenden/NFL_stats.git
cd NFL_stats

Create a virtual environment:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Install dependencies (if applicable):
