Jimmy Garoppolo just signed the largest contract in NFL history with the San Francisco 49ers. He started 5 games for them after being traded midseason and led the 49ers to wins in all of those games.

I wanted to explore how the 49ers team changed after Garoppolo was traded and understand a bit more about how he helped the team. For this analysis, I used a dataset about 2017 NFL plays. You can get the data using NFL scrapeR. I used this tool to download NFL play by play data for 2017 and have included a direct link to where the 2017 NFL data can be downloaded.
