A box score here is one row per player who recorded a line, split into the phases he appeared in, so a table is missing rather than empty where a club had no line of that kind. Interceptions under passing are thrown and interceptions under defence are caught: they are two different columns in the source and are never added together. Sacks and tackles for loss are half-integers and keep their halves. Season type comes from the fixture where the source recorded one and from the box score where it did not. Kickoff is Eastern, and a fixture stored at exactly midnight carries no time rather than a midnight kickoff.
