According to their blog it's not 100% complete and its only rushing, passing and receiving.

that looks right, I had not read blog. But did see that it lacked picks and punts, but still, lots of info made very very handy

Re: New info on Pro Football Reference
For kickers, they should be able to pretty much get extra points made and missed in each game, and although I am still missing some of the distances, I have the game by game number of FG misses for all the kickers from 1949-53 and 1956-59, and 54-55 there are a couple questions over which Cardinal kicker missed a couple FG's, but my database is by no means official, whether it was Summerall or Crittenden. Defensively, we'll never see tackle data for the 50's, but I would think they should be close on nailing down all the interceptions and defensive fumble recoveries. Coach TJ has documented every interception in NFL history; has he ever made his database available online? Again, we should have quite a bit of individual sack data for that era that has been independently compiled by PFRA members, but again, it is not official statistics.JohnTurney wrote:TodMaher wrote:According to their blog it's not 100% complete and its only rushing, passing and receiving.
