I was going to tell you that most Neanderthal remains are found with signs of injury which would be evidence against that, but it looks like that is just a myth. That said, it seems the frequency of injuries among Neanderthal and their contemporaneous Homo Sapiens peers was about even, which does work as evidence against the idea they were super peaceful unless they were significantly more clumsy hunters.
One theory I've heard is that they were super peaceful compared to homosapiens. Not sure when or where I read that
