Last season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ offense was elite, thanks largely to Baker Mayfield’s career-best performance, where he threw for 4,500 yards and 41 touchdowns.
The Buccaneers’ arsenal, featuring Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Jalen McMillan, Cade Otton, Bucky Irving, and Rachaad White, made them a formidable offense under the guidance of coordinator Liam Coen.
The Buccaneers reinforced their high-powered offense in the NFL Draft by selecting Ohio State star Emeka Egbuka in the first round, giving Baker Mayfield another dynamic target.
NFL Network’s Sara Walsh, on The Insiders, was impressed by the arsenal now at Baker Mayfield’s disposal.
“You give a quarterback in Baker Mayfield who is coming off a career-high 41 touchdown season, he hasn’t lost a single starter on offense,” Walsh stated. “You got Mike Evans, who has never had under 1000 receiving yards, a Pro Bolwer in Chris Godwin, you have Egbuka who everyone in this organization is so high on, and then its an abundance of riches because you add Jalen McMillan who is coming off his rookie season, one in which he was incredibly impressive.”

Defenses will struggle to game plan against the Buccaneers, as they can’t load up the box against their running backs like Irving, White, and Sean Tucker, without leaving themselves vulnerable to Mayfield’s talented receiving corps, featuring Evans, Godwin, McMillan, and Egbuka in one-on-one situations.
As the NFC South favorite once again, the Buccaneers’ potential hinges on defensive improvement, but with Baker Mayfield and a firepower-rich offense, the possibilities could be endless.
