In fairness, the Ravens (Ray Rice), Steelers (Martavis Bryant) and Browns (Josh Gordon) all had players suspended for entire seasons or more during that time frame. Seeing how the list is organized by number of games suspended, this would skew things quite a bit. Only the top 10 teams (by games lost to suspension) were listed, so it's possible the Bengals have as many or more suspensions, but not for as many games.
It's also worth noting that Burfict is being suspended repeatedly for on-field conduct. Let me know how many Ravens, Steelers or Browns have been suspended for hits. I'm guessing 0 and I'm also guessing that none were publicly vilified.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
