Could you describe your query in English? It looks like this could be much simpler if you use the |
I was trying to pull in every statistic recorded, other than tackles. I was trying to tie every play to public.play_player so that I would have all recorded statistics, however based on what I've seen and played with, the public.play_player may not be 100% accurate. I'm had thought you had written before that there was another way to get more accurate statistical data. On a football level... I have to mentally get over the Jets loss on Sunday... it was very... Jetlike. |
There is no way to freely access 100% accurate data. If you really need 100%, then you've got to pay Stats, Inc. for it. I don't have a figure on the accuracy of nfldb's data, but a very rough guess is >95%. There are some ideas I have for future work on increasing accuracy, but they will not happen any time soon. I will try to respond again when I have more time to actually answer your question here. :-) |
Hi all, this is less of an "issue" and more of a question, but I'm not quite sure of the best place to put it. I created a query to include most plays/results of the games. But I wanted to confirm that I'm pulling the data the best way possible. This is the (rather long) query I've made.
You'll see that I pull from PlayPlayer, and then pull the other data from there. Is this the best place to get the most accurate information?
Thanks,
Eric
