Seahawks Secure Play-off Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Los Angeles Rams.

Seattle staged a stunning fightback to overcome the Rams in extra time, securing their place in the postseason.

Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight victory.

While the Rams had already secured a post-season berth earlier on game day, the Seattle team booked their return to the play-offs after a two-year hiatus.

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Sam Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to make two touchdown passes, including the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a 13-7 lead at the break before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a long touchdown run for the home side.

Rams defensive back Wallace then returned Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, leading to a short score by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then connected with AJ Barner in the endzone, and a converted conversion sent the contest into an extra period.

Although Nacua scored for his second TD in overtime, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
