    The burden of proof isn't the same, but he was found guilty in a civil trial. And not to be pedantic, but a not guilty ruling means that the jurors found that the prosecution failed to prove their case. They didn't find him innocent. That sociopath killed those two people.

    Not that he is to be lauded for being a woman beater, but how the hell is that the same as being a double murderer?

    There is an alternative, just not a very good one. I’m avoiding it as long as I can.

    Was way too young to follow stuff like that. Not good for sure but there has been more then one pro sports player who has done that and more then a few have been accused of sexual misconduct. All bad, of course, but not as bad as ending two lives with a knife but hell in America you are innocent if the jurors say you are innocent.

    No, Jim was a scientist. He was trying to prove Newton's Law of Gravity when he threw his 22 year old girlfriend off the 3rd story balcony onto the side walk.

    That 2008 team had a young Ben, and a better defense :shrug:.

    The guy was praising Brown, I was just pointing out he was a bad guy also, I wasn't saying that what Brown did equals to double murder.

    The 2019 D was every bit as good as 2008. Maybe better.

    Hard no on that one. 2008 was number 1. 2019 was number 6 and gave up 28% more yards.

    Not even close, 2008 was a far better defense.

    From what I saw on tv when all that stuff went down, yeah I thought he was guilty. He was found not guilty though. People are going to have opinions about him and what he allegedly did. I just find it foolish that people want to discredit what he did on the football field. I too think he’s a terrible human being.

    Total yards is not apples to oranges due to # of games. A true comparison is yards per game average. JMO>

    At least even an idiot like AB had the good sense to substitute an ottoman for his girlfriend. He didn't get the extra credit though because he nearly hit a juvenile. Back to the drawing board.

    I don't disagree. He hadn't been accused of being a double murderer when he was an active player, or for years afterward.

    I certainly won't win any stats arguments on that one, but I just feel the 2019 D had to deal with a much worse offense and was still really dynamic and disruptive. They also were further handcuffed by the recent avalanche of rule changes that make it almost impossible to play D anymore.
