I'm pulling them from a play-by-play repository called nflfastR. You use the programming language R to pull the data. The numbers look roughly correct, though there are likely just a small amount of penalties throwing me off slightly. I am also looking at 2021 and 2022 so far. Here is what I have...
Pass plays - 701 (by hand count I have 708)
Run plays - 477 (by hand count I have 495)
Pretty close in both regards, or at least not different enough to throw me off by ~10%. As far as shotgun/not, I have...
Non-shotgun - 331 runs, 101 passes (76.6%)
Shotgun - 600 passes, 146 runs (80.4%)
