Jesus was very clear.
"And I tell you that you are Kepha [the Aramaic word that Jesus would have used], and on this Kepha I will build my Church "
This is followed by the giving of the keys of the kingdom to Peter, which is in reference to Isaiah 22 where the keys are given to the steward to show he is to act with the king's authority while the king is away.
So, I agree that it is very clear what Jesus was saying here. Peter was his Vicar.

Peter was retroactively deemed the first Pope a couple of centuries after his death. He even referred to himself as a “fellow bishop”. Him being the sole authority of the early church would have been news to him.
Of course Peter was a bishop. He could have obviously not been the pope as we think of a pope today. That said, the pope is now simply the Bishop of Rome. All popes are bishops.
The clergy in the Catholic Church can all trace their individual ordinations back to the original 12 apostles of Christ. Non-Catholic Christians can’t do that.
