The team's name was inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's poem The Raven — as Poe lived for a time in Baltimore, died and was buried there in 1849. The Ravens were established in 1996, when then-owner of the Cleveland Browns, announced plans to relocate the franchise to Baltimore. The Ravens are playing in the North Division of the American Football Conference (AFC). They are coached by John Harbaugh. They have experienced great success in their brief history, making the playoffs nine times since 2000, with Super Bowl XXXV and XLVII victories, two AFC Championship titles — 2000 and 2012, four AFC North division titles — 2003, 2006, 2011 and 2012.
