Bart Scott disagrees with ESPN rankings, would rather have Aaron Rodgers than Joe Burrow

Joe Burrows over Aaron Rodgers? Not according to ESPN analyst Bart Scott, who favors the New York Jets quarterback when ranking the NFL’s top quarterbacks.

In a recent ESPN survey of NFL executives and scouts , Patrick Mahomes was named as the top quarterback in the league followed by Joe Burrow. Aaron Rodgers, who joined the Jets last year, was ranked eighth.

Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III and the aforementioned Scott debated on ESPN the list. Scott, a former Jets linebacker, didn’t agree with placing Burrow above Rodgers on the list.

Griffin disagreed, making his point by saying “You talk simply about the QBs, there’s no way you’re taking Aaron Rodgers for one game, one year or five years over Joe Burrow at this point.”

Scott then launched in.

“What does Joe Burrow do significantly better than Aaron Rodgers? So it’s a coin toss, right? Because you can’t say Joe Burrow is a better thrower of the football than Aaron Rodgers. You can’t say his football is better. He reads coverages, know where to throw the football,” Scott said on ESPN.

“If I’m going with the decision, I’m going with A-Aaron, someone who I’ve seen close the deal. Joe Burrow has fallen short.”
