Seahawks 21, Raiders 3

FLASH RECAP:
Matt Flynn throws for 102 yards and a touchdown to lead Seattle (4-0) to a preseason victory over Oakland (1-3) before an announced crowd of 66,157 at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, Wash. on Aug. 30, 2012.

The Seahawks build a 13-0 lead before halftime on two Steven Hauschka field goals (from 25 & 29 yards) and a 2-yard touchdown run by Vai Taua.

Flynn's 4-yard scoring pass to Cooper Helfet gives Seattle a 19-0 late in the third quarter. Jaye Howard tackles Oakland's Mike Goodson in the end zone for a safety to build Seattle's lead to 21-0 midway through the fourth quarter.

Oakland avoids a shutout in its 2012 exhibition finale when Eddy Carmona kicks a 31-yard field goal with 15 seconds left.

PRIME-TIME PLAYERS:

Seattle
QB Matt Flynn — Is 11 of 13 passing for 102 yards and a TD.

THEY SAID IT:
"We have all started thinking about the San Diego Chargers. I have already started watching film on them. That was our main objective, you want to get a win but to get out of this game healthy and be ready to roll for Week 1."

Raiders QB Carson Palmer

BY THE NUMBERS:
0: Oakland points during the game's first 59:45.
5-24: Raidres' first downs compared to Seattle first downs.

DID YOU KNOW?:
The last time Seattle went undefeated in the preseason was 2009. That season ended with the Seahawks going 5-11, losing their last four games, and then coach Jim Mora got unceremoniously fired.
