Seattle Seahawks Secure Postseason Spot with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Los Angeles Rams.

Game-winning play in the extra period

Receiver Saubert made the game-winning two-point conversion for Seattle.

The Seattle Seahawks engineered a stunning fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their place in the postseason.

Rallying from a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seattle squad triumphed 38-37 at home, registering their fifth consecutive victory.

While the Rams had become the first to earn a post-season berth earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team booked their return to the postseason after a 24-month hiatus.

With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their Conference race with a 12-3 record, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five seed with an eleven and four record.

Action Highlights

Signal-caller Darnold had two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two scoring throws, culminating in the tying TD to wideout Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a six-point lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.

Los Angeles defensive back Wallace then returned Darnold's initial pick for a big return, setting up a one-yard touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed provided the comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then found Barner in the endzone, and a converted two-point play sent the game into overtime.

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his another TD in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to set up the decisive score.

  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba posted ninety-six receiving yards and the overtime touchdown.
  • The 23-year-old tops the NFL with 1,541 yards for the season.
