Project Objective

Shiny App Use

  • Do you own a fantasy football team?!
  • Are you super competitive?
  • Are you tired of making seemingly "random" decisions
  • Are you tired of hearing constant smack from the rest of your league?

This may be the app for you. In a quick snapshot you can gain insight in to passing yards based off of predictors such as:

  • Opponent defensive rank
  • Opponent
  • Location of the game (home or away), and finally

Data Variables
