"Well deserved," a fan tweeted.

Kevin Stefanski has led the Browns to two playoff berths

Before Kevin Stefanski's arrival, the Cleveland Browns had not made a playoff appearance since 2002. They've since made the postseason and recorded their first playoff victory in 26 years.

Last season, Stefanski guided the team to an impressive 11-win regular season despite injuries to key players. Stefanski joined Paul Brown as the only coach in Browns' history to record multiple seasons with at least 11 regular season wins.

The Browns have become consistent under Stefanski's coaching and top-notch front-office work from general manager Andrew Berry. They'll look for more success behind their run-heavy offense and stifling defense.

Kevin Stefanski will hope for a fit and ready Deshaun Watson in 2024

The goal ahead of the 2024 is to improve on the efforts from 2023. The Browns will again rely on their home form that saw them finish last season with an 8-1 record at Cleveland Browns Stadium. The stadium has become something of a fortress, and they'll need to reprise such form to make the postseason in 2024.

Furthermore, Kevin Stefanski and the Browns will welcome franchise quarterback Deshaun Watson to the fold. The former Pro Bowler has recovered from his season-ending shoulder injury. He will be looking to repay the team's faith in his skills in his third season with the franchise.

The Browns have one of the tougher schedules in the NFL. However, if anyone can take them to the postseason in back-to-back seasons, it's Kevin Stefanski.
