I'm surprised there's nobody in here b***hing about how this dude keeps snapping the ball low when Purdy is in the gun.

I've noticed that as well. I think it was a low snap on Ronnie Bells TD, IIRC. Definitely something to work on. Other than that, he's been playing really well.

Yeah, the center, left guard and left tackle are dominating the defensive lines on that side. McCaffrey is averaging 5+ yards a carry by running mainly to the left.

The dude was clearly spooked with this A gap blitzes and pressure. But yeah, no excuses at this stage.

2 fumble snaps under center this season. Not sure who was at fault. I don't recalled Brock and Brendal had this issue last season.

The one in the last game sure seemed to be on Purdy.
Get those shotgun snaps higher.

Well keep in mind, it's only his 2nd year as a full time starter.

He sure has. And if he can keep getting better we'll be set up fine for the better teams we face.

Saw someone point this out in a youtube comment. Hilarious block from Brendel on CMC's wide toss TD. Like playing skittles.

Yup, one of the fastest OLinemen the 49ers have.

Brendel has been my top bright spot for the team this year.
I think he's improved more than any player (other than the fumbled snaps). Aiyuk included.

I personally thought he's improved, but never thought about in comparison to others. I believe he was a journeyman backup until he got the start here? So to see him improve as he plays at his age is indeed impressive and a welcome surprise for sure. His improvement is helping big time. I think McKivitz is as well, but Burford is not.
