This is an archive for nfl statistics and information. It is intended to replace the old nfl stats directory formerly stored in /pub/nfl at wuarchive. Currently it is being run via the kindness of Chris Myers, and being maintained at the convenience of Bryan Cooper (cooperr@a.cs.okstate.edu). Everything is accessible at wuarchive.wustl.edu in directory: /doc/misc/sports/nfl. /doc/misc/sports/nfl/Lists holds miscellaneous tables of info. /doc/misc/sports/nfl/Misc holds varied informations such as the QB rating formula. /doc/misc/sports/nfl/Records holds summaries of seasons, championships, etc. /doc/misc/sports/nfl/Statistical-leaders holds listings of record holders at various positions such as passing yardage leaders. Enjoy. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Some common abbreviations that will be used: info == table of miscellaneous information ss == single season record listing gm == record listing for single games car == career record listing. pass == passing information listing. rush == rushing information listing. rec == receptions information listing. tds == touchdowns yrds == yardage ----------------------------------------------------------------- Some of the files that are currently being housed: nfl.sched Contains the NFL schedule for 1992. heisman.info Contains information about heisman trophy winners, including the pro teams they played for. superbowl.info Contains superbowl history, including site, attendance and MVP. = stadiums.info Contains information on team stadiums. = nfl.addresses Contains address for NFL office, and all 28 teams. pass.tds.ss Contains the top single-season passing touchdown record holders. pass.yrds.ss Contains the top single-season passing yardage record holders. rush.yrds.ss Contains the top single-season rushing yardage record holders. = rush.yrds.car Contains the top career rushing yardage record holders as of 1991 season. rec.tds.ss Contains the top single-season receiving touchdown record holders. rec.yrds.ss Contains the top single-season receiving yardage record holders. rec.ss Contains the top single-season receptions record holders. afl-afc Contains scores for the AFL-AFC championship games. nfl-nfc Contains scores for the NFL-NFC championship games. afc.vs.nfc.70-90 Contains AFC teams vs. NFC teams records. summary.70-90 Contains team records for 20 years of play. qp-rating-formula Contains formula for computing QB rating. tie-breakers Contains tie-breakers for playoff selections. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Currently, I only have time to maintain records and information as of the end of the '91 season. I don't have the time to try to keep track of where Eric Dickerson is on the career rushing yardage leaders, nor do I have time to update records that have been shattered this season such as Lofton, and Monk's receiving accomplishments. But, if anyone would be willing to take on these functions, please get in touch with me (cooperr@a.cs.okstate.edu). It would also be nice for someone to maintain current standings in the divisions. Right now, this archive is in it's fledgling stages, and I would appreciate any support that could be given. I will add files as I create and collect them. Thanx for the time you have spent in reading this file. Bryan Cooper, cooperr@a.cs.okstate.edu ps. peace THANKS ARE DUE: Chris Myers {chris@wugate.wustl.edu} for the space. Ken Ruggiero {v106nm43@ubvmsb.cc.buffalo.edu} for the 20 year summary files.
