Seahawks Secure Postseason Spot with Thrilling Overtime Triumph over Rams.

Seattle staged a remarkable comeback to defeat the Rams in extra time, securing their spot in the postseason.

Overcoming a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed 38-37 at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Rams had already secured a playoff spot earlier on game day, the Seahawks booked their return to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their Conference race with a twelve and three mark, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a 13-7 advantage at the break before Walker burst through for a long scoring dash for the home side.

Rams cornerback Wallace then returned Darnold's first interception for a big return, leading to a short touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua extended the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited the comeback with a 58-yard punt return.

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

Although Puka Nacua scored for his another TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the decisive conversion.
