The game was just the second victory of the season for head coach Kyle Shanahan's young and injury-plagued squad. Both he and Mullens spoke to the team in the locker room after the win.
Said Mullens: "When we won against the Cowboys, we came to this locker room and I said, 'It's only preseason, but that's why we play the game.' Well, this isn't preseason!"
Shanahan told his players that "everyone played their ass off" against the Raiders.
"Enjoy it tonight," he continued. "Enjoy it this weekend."
