For this rivalries list, are we talking about historically or currently, as in today? The OP says in 2010, so...
The list was made in 2010. It seems that they generally tried to do historical rivalries, but it does seem that they placed some emphasis on how relevant it was at the time it aired (Ravens-Steelers and Colts-Patriots most notably there)

2010 or now, it’s a dumb list and the usual tortured logic applies.
Cowboys-Redskins ruled out because of relevance in 2010. OK, but Browns-Bengals was somehow relevant at the time? Please.
I think if you asked most Browns fans who their biggest rival is they would say the Steelers, not the Bengals. And I think plenty of Steelers fans feel the same way, even if the rivalry has been one-sided for a long time.

The ultimate sign that Browns-Bengals doesn’t really belong; let alone that high:
They interviewed Willie McGinest who played for Cleveland from 2006-2008, and he said he never knew those two were rivals until they told him.
