Because of the peculiarities of shell quoting, you need to quote the
key sequence inside single quotes because the double quotes are
significant to bind

bind '"\e\C-b"':backward-word

Also note the lack of space around the colon when using the 'bind'
command as opposed to putting it in ~/.inputrc.
