i'm playing with this now, but do you know how to find the gameDetailsByIds? digging through Chrome inspector doesn't show those 1016xxxx IDs anywhere

I haven't used or maintained any NFL related code for some time now.

All good :) I got it all sorted, it’s just a bit tedious working with their API

As far as I can tell, between last July and now, the NFL deprecated part of the api at https://api.nfl.com/v3/shield/, root.games and league.games, which I had used to get the detailedids (for a given season/week, etc.) necessary to used the ...byIds queries.

@RustyBower: Have you found these? Is that what you mean by "all good"? If so, do you mind sharing what you found?

I pulled all the changes I needed into https://github.com/RustyBower/sopel-sports/blob/master/sopel_modules/sports/nfl.py

I'm still working on figuring out how to grab schedule/score from arbitrary years/weeks

Sopel Sports looks pretty legit. How far do you intend on taking this? is there any reason you're building this as a sopel app and not just a generic tool like nflgame?

It's a plugin for an IRC bot I help maintain, so just easier to keep it all maintained in one spot
