A Python library (nflgame) providing an API to retrieve and read NFL Game Center JSON data, including real-time feeds useful for fantasy football, with a companion library (nfldb) for storing NFL data in a relational database. The project is explicitly unmaintained, with an actively maintained fork available.
Use cases
- fetch nfl game stats in python
- get real-time nfl play-by-play data for fantasy football
- store nfl game data in a relational database
- query player statistics for nfl games
- analyze historical nfl game data
When to choose
- you need quick access to NFL Game Center JSON data in Python and don't mind an unmaintained project
- you want to build fantasy football tools from real-time NFL feeds
- you need a simple way to persist NFL game data in a SQL database
When to avoid
- you need actively maintained software - use the maintained fork instead
- you need guaranteed API stability since NFL endpoints may change without fixes
- you need support for sports other than the NFL
