stats requests for football
Posted: Sun Apr 05, 2015 8:23 am
Hi, I would like to see 2 enhancements for the football app, both stats wise:
1. First down stats by rushing should be credited to the running back who makes the first down, not the QB. I have asked for this change previously BTW. Here is an example from ESPN where they credit the running backs and receivers when first downs are made..
http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/stats/_/nam ... ay-packers" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
2. Games played for special team players. Right now, I can go into the game stats and manually change when an offensive lineman for example, appears in a game and isn't a starter. Likewsie for defensive players who don't generate any stats. However, for special team players there is no way to show them appearing in a game unless we put them either as an offensive or defensive player. Can you add a "game" column for special teamers similar to the offense and defense tabs? Also, punt returners, etc accumulate stats but they don't show up as playing in a game unless we manually add them.
Thanks in advance.
