Describe the bug

In 2001, week 5 and game_type = POST returns data for 31/32 teams, haven't checked which team is missing. Then, starting in 2007 with NE/NYG, week 5 and game_type = POST is the super bowl team's depth charts (i.e. all the way through 2023 where both SF/KC are charted this way, except 2014 seems to be without this bug).

In addition, the season weeks are just weird:

• 2001-04: weeks 1-21 are charted (correctly) but the playoff weeks have every team, not just the playoff teams
• 2005: data ends week 17
• 2006, 2014: seems right (weeks 1-21 charted and only teams in playoffs for 18-21)
• 2007-13, 2015-2020: week 18 is charted as like an extra fake regular season week for all teams, which pushes the subsequent weeks back one (i.e. the playoffs are now wrongly weeks 19-22)
• 2021-present: same thing as the bullet above except now the extra fake regular season week is week 19 and playoffs weeks 20-23

### Expected Behavior

Would expect that depth charts should be charted only for the season-weeks that a team is actually playing in. If that is not possible for data reasons/issues/etc., would at least expect that the data be formatted the same across each season.
