It isn’t easy being the Cleveland Browns in the AFC North. The other three teams have been well run, mostly, for at least a couple of years (Cincinnati) or much longer (Baltimore, Pittsburgh). The Browns, as the loyal fans know, have rarely been run anything but into the ground.
As we present our first weekly AFC North power rankings, it is important to remember that we are focused on what we have seen on the field, what is proven and what each team’s track record shows us. Based on 2022 and that none of the teams in the division blew up their core, Cleveland fans will be unhappy with the initial rankings.
