Kind of.... the Browns Belichick coached are really the Ravens now.
Ozzie Newsome was on that incredible Belichick staff in Cleveland that was on the cusp of consistent competitiveness when Art Modell pulled the plug on Cleveland. That was long ago, but the player selection by the Ravens in the hands of Ozzie Newsome is what makes them consistently competitive. His biggest mistake these days was paying Joe Flacco all that money and extending him past his shelf life. Flacco and Eli have both fallen off the cliff. Newsome and his scouts do a good job with the draft and typically move on from guys at the right time.
The AFC Central is always competitive with Pittsburgh, Baltimore and Cincinnati. If Marv Lewis could coach, it would be the best division in football. Baltimore and Pittsburgh are always a handful.
