Lamar Jackson or Joe, who is Whitworth?s favorite?

In an interview on Friday with Rich Eisen on ‘The Rich Eisen Show,’ Thursday Night Football NFL Analyst, Whitworth shared his thoughts on the upcoming slate of NFL games. When asked about his feelings regarding the Ravens and Lamar, particularly after Lamar’s significant $260 million contract and with star player Odell Beckham Jr. joining the team, Whitworth expressed his perspective. He mentioned that everyone has their favorite team, and he happens to be the Bengals. Taking that into account, he stated, ?I love the Bengals and spent a lot of time playing there.?

He continued by saying, “Lamar Jackson, it?s all the talk this offseason. The deal gets done, but also they?ve added a lot of weapons.” Whitworth expressed his anticipation for the Bengals and Ravens matchup, highlighting the excitement of seeing both teams with their full complement of offensive weapons.

He concluded, “I still think I give the nod to the Bengals, just because I just honestly believe Joe Burrow is really that rare special quarterback who just for whatever reason finds ways to win games in big moments.”

The weapons of the Ravens and the Bengals

This season holds great significance for Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, and their respective teams. With a multitude of formidable weapons at their disposal, it becomes challenging to determine who will outshine the other. The Ravens have bolstered their roster by adding wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (whom Aaron Rodgers desired to have on his side).

They have also acquired wide receiver Zay Flowers and welcomed new offensive coordinator Todd Monken, further enhancing their offensive capabilities.

On the other hand, the Bengals have also made significant additions to their roster. In addition to their star quarterback Joe Burrow, they have drafted talented running back Chase Brown,?and defensive end Myles Murphy, all of whom possess impressive athletic abilities. Brown, standing at a height of 5′ 11″, utilizes his low center of gravity to his advantage on the field. The team has also added players like Charlie Jones and Andre Iosivas, who bring speed and athleticism to the team, further strengthening their overall lineup.
