Default Most and Least Arrested NFL teams

http://www.thepostgame.com/blog/hero...rates-revealed

Minnesota and Denver are the worst with 32 arrests in the past 10 years. Texans are 2nd best with just 8 (Arizona is best with 7). I genuinely appreciate this about the Texans. I hate to admit I would appreciate a Super Bowl more (a little sad), but I do enjoy being able to root for my favorite team with relatively little guilt.

On a related note, the website 538 which studies statistics had an article that showed arrest rates in the NFL are just %13 of those for the same age brackets in the general public. Domestic Violence was the worst rate for the NFL, as it was only half as bad as the general public. It is easy to hear about high profile arrests and think these guys are terrible, but the (sad) truth is that they are much better behaved than society on the whole.

Well, this year, seems the focus has come on domestic abuse in a big way.

Hoping with all the attention this helps reduce domestic abuse in general and in NFL for sure. Maybe even legal system treating of domestic abuse.
