4th Down Study
There's an excellent introduction to how to use R to scrape NFL data here, and a slightly more involved tutorial here. I strongly suggest giving this a go, both for the NFL related data crunching you can do, and for the ideal opportunity to learn a programming language: figuring out how to do something you already want to do.

Is there anywhere I can find the standard deviation of points and yards for each team in each game?
It's been superseded by nflfastR at least for the play by play stuff. You can also download the data directly, rather than using the scraping functions. https://github.com/nflverse/nfldata
- Can I pull the entire seasons schedule down from somewhere in json, xml, or csv format?

2022 NFL Average YAC on Passes Less than or Equal to 2 Yards (Min. 50 Catches)
I just opened up play-by-play data, and while I just looked at regular season data (some of these guys weren't in POs, so it doesn't matter), and only had 6 guys with 50+ catches of 2 or less air yards - including McCaffery, who's not on here. So....I'm a but confused. But whatever, I lowered the requirement to 30 receptions (to include everyone who got mentioned here), and here's the resulting table, sorted by Success Rate on such receptions:
