The Buccaneers are good in clutch moments.

Buccaneers have 'mastered' 1 thing under Baker Mayfield originally appeared on The Sporting News

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have raced out to a 3-0 record and already have a stranglehold on the NFC South with Todd Bowles and his team stacking the wins early.

Granted, the Buccaneers have needed a game-winning drive from Baker Mayfield in every game to win, and so far, No. 6 has answered the call time and time again.

But as we know, that isn't exactly a sustainable way to live in the NFL, but right now, Tampa Bay has confidence in it that, no matter the situation, they know they will come out on top.

And for CBS Sports' John Breech, the Buccaneers have mastered the art of the close finish.

"The Buccaneers have definitely mastered the art of the heart-pounding win this season," Breech writes. "Tampa Bay is 3-0 and all three wins have come by three points or less."

Buccaneers and Eagles meet in NFC Championship preview?

Both teams are 3-0 and playing some good football, so this one has all the makings of a classic and could even be an NFC Championship preview.

The Buccaneers, though, surely can't continue to rely on Mayfield pulling it out of the fire week in, week out, as the magic will eventually run out, and Vic Fangio's defense knows how to halt good offenses in their tracks.

Tampa Bay has won three games against opposition it should have beaten, and now comes its first real test against the Eagles. Pass it, and the NFL world will look at the Buccaneers a little differently in the Super Bowl conversation.

But lose, and Tampa Bay might just be considered another team in the playoff race.
