Pro Football Reference (PFR) is a statistics database for professional American football maintained by Sports Reference. The site provides career statistics for players, teams, and games, as well as records and NFL draft history. The company also publishes similar statistics websites for basketball, baseball, and hockey.
History
Pro Football Reference was established by Doug Drinen in December 2000. In December 2019, PFR introduced the Hall of Fame monitor. The purpose of this monitor is to apply a formula to quantify player contributions during their career (including All-Pro selections, Pro Bowl selections, various awards, and career statistics) and to highlight where Pro Football Hall of Fame players rank in comparison, often with the goal of estimating a player's chances of making the Hall of Fame. Drinen is also responsible for the creation of the "approximate value" statistic, a metric used to quantify the value of a player's season.
In 2000, John Turney and Nick Webster, members of the Professional Football Researchers Association (PFRA), conducted extensive research to create a more complete record of sacks in the NFL. After examining the play-by-play records of every NFL team as well as game film at NFL films they compiled a list of players with 100 sacks beginning in 1960. These statistics, both the official and unofficial sack counts, are counted and displayed separately on the site from 1960 onwards.
