C Jake Brendel Thread

In case you didn't know, the last time the Niners drafted a center, it was Marcus Martin in the 3rd round of the 2014 draft. They have used free agency to fill that role ever since. This and the fact that they are the ONLY team to not draft an OT in the last 4 drafts is why their offensive line sucks so bad. Brendel needs to go no matter what his PFF ratings say. He watches the game almost as much as he participates in it. Feliciano isn't coming back because he's been critical of his former teammates on his podcast. Hennessy must look awful to not be able to unseat Brendel. Moss is potentially the future but don't know if he will be ready this season. I just hope that Shanahan, Foerster and Lynch see the light before going into next year's draft where there are some great potential replacements.

Right

Brendel is so 🗑?. Feel like he's constantly getting bullied

I would've rather him been replaced based on performance rather than it taking an injury.

Hennessy getting his shot

Might be a blessing he is out.

I don't want to see anybody hurt. But it's like addition by subtraction.

Your fired Brendel

Is it me or does the offensive line look better with Hennessy? I also noticed Hennessy has more push and a better anchor

Yes, huge difference

Exactly.

This was by far the best this line has looked.

Hennessy needs to start.

Definitely addition by subtraction. It's hard to remember a game changing that much when a non QB player was off the field.

It's like the entire offense came alive.

Run blocking was way better with Henessy

Pass blocking too
