Possession was begun as soon as the center put his hands on the ball. Even if the snap is "muffed", it still is possible for B to gain possession. Anytime a ball is fumbled, muffed, passed, or kicked, it is a loose ball. Consequently, a beanbag is needed since this becomes a spot for enforcement. Many times a quarterback picks up the loose ball and continues before the beanbag can be thrown. It this occures, I do not throw the beanbag at the spot.
The spot of a legal forward pass, the spot of a muff, or the spot of a legal kick is never an enforcement spot. Also, when a receiver drops a pass it is a muff. Do you bag this?

As for the original question, the spot of a muffed snap is (believe it or not) the spot of a muff and is never an enforcement spot, so no bag is necessary.
