Six weeks into the 2021 NFL season, the Super Bowl contenders have begun separating themselves from the pack. While some teams are winning with great defense, others are simply outscoring their opponents with ease.
Averaging 30 points per game is usually a recipe for success in the NFL. Here are the top five scoring offenses so far in the 2021 NFL season:
Top 5 NFL offenses heading into Week 7
#5 - Kansas City Chiefs - 30.8 points per game
The Kansas City Chiefs may be 3-3, but not because of the team's offense. The defense allows slightly under 30 points per game, while the offense is just above that mark at 30.8 points per game.

Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a 31-13 victory over Washington to maintain his team's scoring average. The Chiefs' offense has failed to score at least 30 points in a game only twice this NFL season. As long as Mahomes is under center, opposing teams must prepare for a shootout when facing Kansas City.
#4 - Arizona Cardinals: 32.3 points per game
The Arizona Cardinals humbled the Cleveland Browns 37-14 in Week 6 without their head coach on the sidelines.
Kyler Murray is playing at an MVP level and the Cardinals offense has only failed to score 30 points in a game on one occasion this year. That did not matter, however, as they remain undefeated to this point.

#3 - Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 32.5 points per game
Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers picked up a 28-22 win over the Philadelphia Eagles last Thursday, their fifth in six games this NFL season. It was a quiet day at the office for the Buccaneers offense, who have scored 45 points or more twice this season.
Brady leads the NFL in passing yards and the only way to slow him down is to force a rare turnover. Tampa Bay seems to be avoiding a Super Bowl hangover thanks to their ageless wonder at quarterback.

#2 - Buffalo Bills: 33.8 points per game
The Buffalo Bills lost dramatically on Monday night despite scoring 31 points. Week 1 remains the only game this season in which the Bills have failed to reach the 30-point mark this season.
Josh Allen is doing it all with his arms and legs and the Bills are top contenders in the NFL. Getting Devin Singletary more work out of the backfield moving forward will only make this group more dynamic.
#1 - Dallas Cowboys: 34.2 points per game
The Dallas Cowboys are proving they can compete for a Super Bowl with Dak Prescott at quarterback. He is at the helm of the NFL's best scoring offense after a 35-point performance in Week 6.
The question for Dallas remains the defense and whether they can step up if the offense has a rare bad game. Yet at 5-1, the vibes are all good for this Cowboys team.
