The 1989 Cleveland Browns season was the team's 40th season with the National Football League.
It was the Browns' first season with head coach Bud Carson, who had been the defensive coordinator of the New York Jets the previous season. The Browns reached their third AFC Championship Game in four seasons, and for the third time lost to the Denver Broncos.
It would be the Browns's fifth consecutive season making the playoffs, but it would be their last playoff season until 1994.

“In the scheme of our national government, the presidency is preeminently the people’s office.”
—Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)
“The season developed and matured. Another year’s installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
