For the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, winning another division championship could be the launching point to their best-case season.
When NFL teams draft a quarterback with the first pick in the NFL Draft, they do so with visions of winning a Super Bowl down the road. For Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, the Cleveland Browns certainly had those visions, but it's his current team that is looking to see it through to reality.
After an impressive first year leading the Buccaneers, Mayfield was re-signed to a three-year contract and is officially the quarterback the franchise is hitching its post-Tom Brady wagon too.Tampa Bay may not have drafted Mayfield, but the visions of a Super Bowl championship are there all the same, and according to Rich Eisen of"I think the best-case scenario for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this year is winning the Super Bowl," Eisen said.
"A bunch of guys are being brought back. Lavonte David is back. And I think that would permeate a locker room in such a way that they could win this division, maybe get a couple of home playoff games and go to the playoffs and shock the world. Best case scenario, am I saying it's going to happen? I can't sit here and say a team that was one of the final eight teams has no chance to win the Super Bowl this year in a best-case scenario.
In fact, many view the Falcons as the favorite to win the NFC South Division and foil the Buccaneers' intentions of winning a fourth-straight group title. So beating the Falcons to the top of that hill will be the first checkpoint to hit on the way up the NFL mountain for Tampa Bay.David Harrison has been in sports media since 2015 using written, audio, and video media to cover athletes, coaches, and games.
