Apparently, all it took was one multi-score win for the Buccaneers to be considered the best team in football.
It also helped seeing three of the only other one-loss teams, the Bills, Lions, and Eagles, lose in Week 6.
Suddenly, there is no clear best team in the NFL through six weeks. Anyone can beat anyone, it seems. Tampa Bay, at 5-1, has proven its ability to win, and its quarterback, Baker Mayfield, is playing at a high level. Apparently, that is enough for them to become the default No. 1 team in the league through six weeks.
