Seahawks Punch Postseason Spot with Thrilling Extra Time Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks engineered a remarkable fightback to defeat the Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seahawks triumphed 38-37 at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

Game Highlights

Quarterback Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, including the tying TD to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a 55-yard touchdown run for the home side.

Los Angeles defensive back Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, leading to a short touchdown by Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Stafford to Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's hope with a 58-yard return for a score.

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

Although Nacua raced in for his another touchdown in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning score.
