Seattle Seahawks Punch Postseason Berth with Thrilling Overtime Victory over Rams.

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

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the final period, the Seattle squad emerged victorious 38-37 at home, notching their fifth straight victory.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a playoff berth earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks booked their return to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their Conference race with a twelve and three mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Quarterback Darnold had two picks but recovered to deliver two scoring throws, culminating in the second TD to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a six-point advantage at half-time before Walker broke free for a long touchdown run for the home side.

Los Angeles cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a one-yard score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed provided Seattle's hope with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a converted two-point play forced the contest into overtime.

Although Nacua raced in for his second TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning score.
