Seattle Seahawks Punch Postseason Berth with Nail-biting Overtime Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

Seattle engineered a remarkable fightback to overcome the Rams in overtime, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a 30-14 deficit in the fourth quarter, 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 playoff spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this result, the Seattle have taken over their Conference race with a 12-3 mark, replacing the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Darnold had two picks but recovered to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the tying TD to star receiver Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

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

Los Angeles defensive back Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's first interception for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then found AJ Barner in the end zone, and a converted two-point play forced the game into overtime.

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