Seattle Seahawks Punch Play-off Spot with Thrilling Overtime Triumph over Rams.

Seattle engineered a remarkable comeback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, securing their spot in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a playoff berth earlier on game day, the Seattle team booked their return to the postseason after a 24-month absence.

With this result, the Seattle now lead their division's race with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Game Recap

Signal-caller Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying score to wideout Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a six-point lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a long scoring dash for the home side.

Los Angeles defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, setting up a one-yard touchdown by Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed provided the hope with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a converted conversion sent the contest into overtime.

Although Puka Nacua scored for his another touchdown in overtime, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
