Seattle Seahawks Secure Postseason Spot with Thrilling Extra Time Triumph over Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable fightback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

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

While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the play-offs after a two-year absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five playoff position with an 11-4 standing.

Game Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold had two picks but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, including the tying TD to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

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

Los Angeles defensive back Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's first pick for a big return, setting up a one-yard score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed provided the hope with a spectacular punt return.

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

Although Puka Nacua scored for his second TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the decisive score.
