For Cincinnati Bengals fans, Bart Scott has been a point of irritation over the last few years.
The former Baltimore Ravens linebacker might be on the path to turning it around with Bengals fans after recent comments, though.
While talking with Betway about who might be able to consistently challenge Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, Scott brought up Joe Burrow: “Right now, we are trying to find that Peyton-Tom Brady matchup. The matchup, to me, may be Joe Burrow. We thought it was Lamar because we thought it was unfair for us to judge Lamar based on his playoff record because he was only in his first year as a starter when he won the MVP and he’s been injured for two years.”
This is a common point of discourse amongst fans this offseason after both Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson couldn’t overcome Mahomes in the playoffs. But for Bengals fans, Scott being the one to push it might register as refreshing.
Over the last few years, Scott came under fire from the likes of Peter King due to controversial comments about the Bengals and later again for comments about Tee Higgins after the Damar Hamlin incident.
