I've been reading a lot about football strategy today. I noticed in the rules of the competition that we're not allowed to use external data when running the analysis. Would it be considered using external data if we classified all the teams as aggressive/offensive or more mild/defensive? I was thinking that if we lumped them into some general categories like that, it might help predict how they'd respond to different field situations. I'm just not sure how we could classify them that way using only the csv--I know the Pats are a fairly aggressive team, but that comes from my own background knowledge, and I'd need to watch more games to solidify my opinion on most of the other teams. Thoughts?
