Breaking down the Cleveland Browns and the AFC North

The Cleveland Brown's last division title was when the AFC Central still existed. The Browns won the division in 1989 with a 9-6-1 record. Cleveland would go on to lose to the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship game that year. Since then, the NFL realigned to eight divisions in 2002 putting the Browns in the AFC North along with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cincinnati Bengals, and the Baltimore Ravens.

Since 2002 the Steelers have won eight division titles, the Ravens have won six, and the Bengals four. The Browns have yet to clinch an AFC North title and they have only finished better than third place twice since 2002.
