Seahawks Secure Postseason Berth with Thrilling Overtime Triumph over Rams.

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

Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Rams had become the first to earn a playoff berth earlier on game day, the Seahawks secured their place to the play-offs after a 24-month hiatus.

With this outcome, the Seahawks have taken over their division's standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five seed with an eleven and four record.

Action Recap

Quarterback Sam Darnold had two interceptions but regrouped to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a six-point lead at half-time before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a 55-yard scoring dash for the home side.

Rams cornerback Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's first pick for 56 yards, leading to a short touchdown by Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed provided Seattle's comeback with a spectacular punt return.

Darnold then found AJ Barner in the endzone, and a successful conversion sent the game into an extra period.

Although Puka Nacua scored for his second touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the decisive conversion.
