This page can’t download from nflverse itself — the sandbox blocks outbound requests and nflverse’s files carry no CORS headers. So you fetch the files once and drop them here; the page reads them locally and remembers the result on this browser.
- Download
play_by_play_2026.csv.gz— this is what carries the GSIS play IDs. - If you also want newly scheduled games recognised, grab
games.csv. - For PFF play IDs, export the charting data from PFF as CSV — any export
carrying
pff_PLAYID,pff_GSISGAMEKEYandpff_GSISPLAYIDworks, extra columns are ignored. - Drop any of them below. Nothing is uploaded.

the file. That name is fixed for exactly that reason.
