{{main|Browns–Ravens rivalry}}
Created as a result of the [[Cleveland Browns relocation controversy|Browns' relocation controversy]], the rivalry between the Browns and [[Baltimore Ravens]] was more directed at Art Modell than the team itself, and is simply considered a divisional game in Baltimore. This matchup is more bitter for Cleveland than the others due to the fact that the draft picks for 1995 to 1998 resulted in the rosters that won the [[Super Bowl XXXV|Super Bowl]] for the Ravens in 2000. Had Modell not moved the team, these teams, drafted by general manager and former Browns tight end [[Ozzie Newsome]], might have given the Browns a title after a 35-year drought.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/rav/|title=Baltimore Ravens Team Encyclopedia|website=[[Pro Football Reference]]|access-date=December 30, 2010|archive-date=October 24, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191024144120/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/rav/|url-status=live}}</ref> As of the 2023 season, the Ravens lead the overall series 36–14.<ref>{{Cite web |title=All Matchups, Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/game_query.cgi?tm1=cle&tm2=rav&yr=all |access-date=2024-08-04 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> The two teams have not met in the playoffs.
