Question
QUESTION: I was told that running back Jim Brown was never stopped behind the line of scrimmage. Ridiculous, right?

ANSWER: Absurd.

QUESTION: I appreciate your quick response to my question but could you tell me where to find statistics that will prove the absurdity of my friend's claim? Thanks.

Answer
You would have to get a play by play game log for any game that Brown appeared in, I'm not even sure if there is anywhere to get such an item for games that were played over 40 years ago. If it's really worth your bother, I would call the Browns PR department and see if such an item would exist.
