Okay. I see where we discussed this back in 2018. I believe Ray has put that out there (Long Snapping factoring into shotgun sets) because another prominent GM nudged me in that direction, as well.

Thank you for clearing it up.....AGAIN. :)

couldnt find any direct questioning/ answers from the top involing short snapping and shot gun sets. Plenty of fumbles from poor snappers, not in shotgun, and i have never seen a fumbled shotgun snap, but i haven't used poor snappers in years. i like 90 and above in both spots.

Like years ago your could use 30 to 40 and see some fumbles but now 60 to 70 is equal...

seth is the next best thing, and we minorly disagree with weights in some areas but short snap has never been one

It would be neat to see a fumbled shotgun snap, but the same goes for seeing a user put small fast pass blockers to counter act the current punt blocks

I wasn't talking about visual fumbles, per se but rather maybe the ball doesn't accelerate back to the QB fast enough and the timing lapse of not factoring in long snapping on a C for shotgun formations would lead to a play's failure. (jailbreak sack, interception...etc.)

Visually we never really see a snap go haywire on screen unless someone just says eh and decides to stick a non-center at the position with no snapping abilities, at all.

It's unfortunate that JDB removed the "what does this skill" do page. I just remember this one because the question comes up every 2-4 months or so.
