1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Obviously, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a legitimate threat to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. They beat them soundly in the Super Bowl. While the Chiefs offensive line was shorthanded, the Buccaneers are still built to beat a team like Kansas City.

Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all-time and at this point, he’s laughing in Father Time’s face. No quarterback is more comfortable in high pressure situations than Brady, and even though Touchdown Tom will be 44 by the time the 2021 regular season begins, good luck betting against him because you’ll likely lose.

Even with an improved offensive line, the Bucs pass rush presents a significant challenge for the Chiefs. They’re bringing back Jason Pierre-Paul, Devin White, Shaquil Barrett, and Ndamukong Suh. The quartet combined for 32.5 sacks last season, which was more than the Chiefs entire defense had (32).

Luckily, the Chiefs won’t have to worry about Tom Brady and his motley crew until (potentially) the Super Bowl. In a twist of irony, the biggest obstacle standing between the Chiefs and a 20-0 season could be Brady, who had his perfect season in 2007 ruined in the Super Bowl.
