The Tampa Bay Buccaneers hope to clinch their third straight NFC South title on Sunday.

All they need to do is defeat the Carolina Panthers to win the division.

Carolina is the worst team in football and defeating them should be no problem for the Buccaneers.

The Bucs must be healthy to reach their full potential and that also means having a healthy Baker Mayfield.

Mayfield injured his ribs late in Sunday’s game while playing the Saints.

According to Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles, Mayfield is a “full go” this week.

Most people thought the retirement of Tom Brady would be the end of the Buccaneers.

The signing of Baker Mayfield has been one of the best moves of the offseason.

Mayfield has thrown for 28 touchdowns with only 10 interceptions and is putting together arguably the best season of his career.

Mayfield and the Buccaneers reportedly have an interest in a reunion after this season, as he only signed a one-year deal this past offseason.

If the Bucs miss the playoffs, there could be some who question bringing him back and want to move in a different direction.

Mayfield can start by winning Sunday’s game to put to rest any questions about his future in Tampa Bay.
