Seattle Seahawks Secure Postseason Berth with Thrilling Overtime Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

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

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the final period, the Seattle squad emerged victorious 38-37 at home, registering their fifth straight win.

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks secured their place to the play-offs after a two-year absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference race with a 12-3 mark, replacing the Rams, who fell to the fifth playoff position with an 11-4 standing.

Game Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold had two picks but recovered to deliver two touchdown passes, including the second score to star receiver Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The Rams held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Walker burst through for a long touchdown run for Seattle.

Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's first interception for 56 yards, leading to a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed provided the comeback with a spectacular punt return.

Darnold then found Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion forced the contest into an extra period.

Although Nacua scored for his second touchdown in overtime, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the decisive score.
