http://www.sports-reference.com/blog/20 ... ay-finder/Pro-Football-Reference is proud to introduce the PI Play Finder, which allows you to query play-by-play data from every NFL game since 2000. Here are a few of the things you can use this tool for:
Event Searches. Example: Find all playoff plays (2000-11) on 3rd/4th down and 11+ yds to go that ended in 1st downs
Team Play Searches. Example: Find every 3rd-and-short run by the Eagles in 2004
Aggregate Stat Searches. Example: Eli Manning had the most yards of any QB in the 4th quarter last season
Team Aggregate Searches. Example: Tennessee had a league-high 194 pass attempts on 3rd down last year
...You get the idea. With this feature, you can find events and calculate splits where the only limit is your imagination.
