Seahawks Secure Postseason Spot with Thrilling Overtime Victory over Rams.

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

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

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this outcome, the Seahawks have taken over their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the fifth playoff position with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two picks but recovered to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III burst through for a long scoring dash for the home side.

Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's first pick for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

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

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his second TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning score.
