Describe the bug

2023 Weeks 16-19 don't seem to have every game. For example, week 17 only has 3 games.

Reprex

library(nflreadr)

pbp <- load_participation() %>%
  filter(startsWith(nflverse_game_id, '2023_17'))

print(length(unique(pbp$nflverse_game_id)))

* Returns 3

Expected Behavior

Should return 16 (the number of games that week)

This is a data source issue, we no longer get consistent coverage for participation data from our scraping. Nothing on the horizon indicates this will resolve itself.
