On CBS Sports' coverage, Carragher addressed the Africa Cup of Nations controversy, having made a claim about Mohamed Salah's Ballon d'Or pursuit.
During Tuesday's show, Scott also delivered a brutal piece of news to the Liverpool legend regarding a poll.
CBS Sports ran a poll asking their audience 'who is the most replaceable' out of Scott, Carragher, Henry and Richards.
And Carragher was the overwhelming winner, receiving 62 per cent of the votes, ahead of Richards, who garnered 14 per cent of the votes.
Scott received 13 per cent of the votes while Henry had 11 per cent of the votes.
When the results came in, Carragher exclaimed 'wow' as he cut stunned figure, with Richards weighing in.
"He farts when he wants, he farts when he wants," chanted Richards, who sat alongside Henry. "Jamie Carragher... he farts when he wants!"
The CBS Sports poll comes after Carragher angered fans and critics alike with his AFCON comments.
But he admitted he was wrong to dismiss the competition as not a 'major tournament'.
"Yes, I've been banging the drum for Mo Salah to become the first African player to win the Ballon d'Or since George Weah in the mid '90s. As I said, I should have been a lot tidier with my language around that, so yes, that's something I'll look at," he explained.
"But as I said, you do look at the Euros, where it's at right now, and other competitions, and some of them resonate with the Ballon d'Or voters, who sometimes are journalists, national coaches, national captains.
"And one of the reasons might be, sometimes we forget, the Ballon d'Or was the European Footballer of the Year. So maybe there is a bias towards the Euros or European football in the past.
"It was definitely not my aim to offend anybody - I know I've done that a lot in the past in different guises about different players and teams. But that was certainly not the case. yes, hopefully that's now addressed it."
