Have you used our Patriots Stats Database?

[Ian]

Mentioned this last month and I noticed it's gotten a little more use recently, but I wanted to post this for those of you who haven't tried it. I started this a couple of seasons ago, and for anyone who isn’t familiar with it, hopefully you'll find it useful and spread the word.

I started it primarily because there were a lot of categories that aren't really easily available by the league, so I wanted to be able to have access to that information and as it got going, there were other things I wanted to know as well and it's kind of grown from there. For anyone who follows me or the site on Twitter, during the game, most of the numbers and stats that are posted are done due to the data I've compiled here.

As a result, I obviously put this together and it's been available for everyone here as well.

Here’s a breakdown of the list of pages that we have for this season, which is updated every Monday night after a final review of the official game book from each contest to confirm their accuracy. It's also reviewed periodically as the league tends to change a play here and there throughout the season. Which I didn't know until I started this. Kind of a pain because I end up having to go back through each game to find it, but at least we end up with reliable data.

I'm also currently adding a few additional parameters that you'll see in the near future (QB Rating, YAC, etc.) So hopefully that's done soon. But obviously feel free to post any suggestions or requests if you have any

Anyway, here's the list:

Also, I have to change the navigation to include last year's totals, which are obviously in there. Just change 2013 to 2012 in your url address area for those.

Same here - don't know why I haven't been using this more. This is great.

I feel like a friggen idiot for not knowing this was here... but then again I'm the guy who thought he spent the last few hours watching the Red Sox - turns out it was just a Duck Dynasty marathon.

Tremendous job Ian!

LOL - it's in that crazy navbar toward the top that says "FULL STATS DATABASE"

Every play from this season and last season are in there, and I put them in every week. I actually have going back to 2009 but I have to go through those seasons again and verify some things to make sure they're as accurate as 2012 & 2013. Plus I've added some additional parameters that aren't in those, so I'll have to do a full audit of them once the season is over and I have some more time.

At any rate, hopefully you'll see the additional numbers from this season soon and I'll get that done over the bye. But I'm going to be continuing to load this up with as much information as I can, so hopefully it becomes a useful tool for everyone

Whoa! This is awesome! I know I'll be spending several hours checking out these stats. Thanks, Ian!

Probably because you're a moron? :singing:

Once again, thank you for providing information far beyond what is necessary Ian. Truly, you are something.

The toggle feature is great - though when one sorts through some of the offensive stats especially there's reason to be concerned. One simply hopes that a guy like Thompkins begins to have an improving catch percentage as the season wears on. There's no room for drop off this season. Lots of room for improvement.

If they can improve in a few areas they could be one of the more dominant teams in the NFL. Right now they really aren't. But I do think the NY game will be a needed wake up call for them - and they may respond well!
