Why Bucs think offense can take Super Bowl-sized step in 2025

TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield and teammates are aiming higher in 2025, and Mayfield uttering the words "Super Bowl" at the start of training camp shouldn't come off as audacious -- especially given his career revival that coincided with Tampa Bay's post-Tom Brady era.

Tampa Bay has won NFC South divisional titles in back-to-back seasons with Mayfield under center, and got as far as the divisional round of the playoffs in 2023 -- falling to the Detroit Lions 31-23 -- and losing by a field goal 23-20 against the Washington Commanders in the 2024 wild-card round.
