Seahawks Punch Postseason Spot with Nail-biting Extra Time Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

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

Overcoming a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed by a single point at home, registering their fifth consecutive win.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this outcome, the Seahawks now lead their division's standings with a 12-3 mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record.

Action Recap

Quarterback Darnold had two picks but recovered to deliver two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Walker broke free for a long scoring dash for Seattle.

Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for a big return, setting up a short touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed provided the comeback with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a successful two-point play sent the game into an extra period.

Although Nacua scored for his second TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to set up the game-winning score.
