Not trying to derail the thread, but I've been considering buying a year of premium on PFF for a while. I have mixed feelings about a lot of what they do, but I love stats so much that I'm really tempted, how well do you like it? Worth $30 for a year access?

I share it with someone, so yeah, definitely worth it.

Working on this bad boy right now. Question - I am currently determining the productivity of every pass rusher on the spreadsheet, based on their sack, hit, and hurry numbers. I want to make the productivity rating the hits/hurries/sacks divided by the number of games they've played.
But should I make it a per-game number, or a per snap number? Technically, per snap is a better measure of productivity. But at the same time, I want to reward players who earn playing time, and just because a guy lucked into a sack one of the ten times he was let on the field doesn't make him necessarily productive.

| For assuming what you're attempting to represent with your data, I'd use a broader per-game-basis-stat to more accurately display the value of ones productivity. The elusive and distorting "luck" factor is valid IMO to raise concern in you're spreadsheet. |

For the purposes of this study, I think that doing it per game would be better.
