Defensive Metrics (Week 1)

So I know I'm incredibly behind, but I've been trying to build a system that eliminates some of the manual work. I've also been pretty busy, so let's hope I can continue this project. I'm not going to add much else or have anything on the offense this year, but I will try to catch up and keep up.

I've had an offer on the table to help me out with a project of this caliber and I just may have to take it up. I think the value of this project comes in the new addition this year. Either way, let me know what you think. I can also easily draw data by offensive drive, quarter, and down. Will try to add some more data tables as I collect more data.

As always, I do not claim to have total accuracy in any of this information, but I do hope that it is accurate to a reasonable degree. Toughest part this week was tracking formation because they can use Vernon Davis and Delanie Walker in so many different spots.

Keep it up this is awesome.. at the mid point and end of regular season some of the other statistics junkies and I could brainstorm analysis. I can already see potential uses for primary factor analysis as well as a component analysis.
