I'm not one for petty arguments with Raider fans online....
I get to do that enough in real life with my boys.......
I'm just sayin, it's preseason, I'm happy with what I saw from my team, but I do see a lot room for improvement. That's what the preseason, is all about. I'm not jumpin up and down about winning a preseason game, but I will be when we smash the Raiders in the regular season........

u guys are blaming delanie too much for that INT.
1. it was a bad decision period, he needed to make a perfect throw and it wasnt a perfect throw altho it was decent - had it been to a wideout, not a tight end.
2. he threw it too high for a tight end, and he threw it a little behind. the defender had his hand on delanies hands which was the main reason it got tipped up.

Balmer Traded to Seahawks for 6th Rd Pick
Kentwan Balmer, the 49ers' former first-round pick who has gone AWOL from the team in recent days, is on his way to the Seattle Seahawks, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. Terms of the deal are not yet know. Seattle needs depth along the defensive line and Balmer potentially could play multiple positions there, including nose tackle and defensive end. Moreover, former 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan, who drafted Balmer 29th overall in San Francisco, is now with the Seahawks. ***UPDATE*** I've been told that the 49ers will get a sixth-round pick in return for Balmer.
Balmer, meanwhile, has been unexcused from 49ers training camp since Wednesday. At that point, the 49ers sent him a so-called five-day letter, which gave the team the right to put him on the reserve/left list starting today. That would have shut down Balmer's season for good.
Balmer was initially excused from camp to deal with a "personal issue," but it soon became clear to the 49ers he did not want to return to the team. Asked Friday if he thought Balmer would be back, coach Mike Singletary said, "If Kentwan wanted to be here, he'd be here."
Balmer has had trouble cracking the starting lineup since he was drafted in 2008 and was behind Isaac Sopoaga and Ray McDonald at left defensive end. Balmer had spoken in recent months about frustration over where he was on the depth chart.
