Despite being named the NFL Coach of the Year two times, Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski is considered the third-best NFL coach in the AFC North division according to an NFL analyst. Ravens’ Coach John Harbaugh took top honors among the division stalwarts of Harbaugh, Stefanski, Steelers’ Mike Tomlin, and Bengals’ Zac Taylor.

Stefanski enters his fifth year as the Browns head coach.  He was applauded last season for leading the Browns to the playoffs with five different quarterbacks, most notably veteran Joe Flacco.  Stefanski hopes to get solid and consistent play out of a healthy Deshaun Watson which has not happened since he was acquired in the blockbuster trade with the Houston Texans in 2022.
