Seahawks Secure Postseason Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Rams.

Seattle engineered a stunning fightback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

Rallying from a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Rams had become the first to earn a post-season spot earlier on game day, the Seahawks booked their return to the postseason after a 24-month absence.

With this result, the Seattle now lead their division's standings with a 12-3 record, replacing the Los Angeles, who fell to the fifth seed with an eleven and four record.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two picks but recovered to deliver two scoring throws, including the second score to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a 13-7 lead at the break before Kenneth Walker III burst through for a 55-yard touchdown run for the home side.

Los Angeles defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, leading to a short score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's hope with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the endzone, and a successful two-point play sent the game into overtime.

Although Nacua scored for his another TD in overtime, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning score.
