Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Spot with Nail-biting Overtime Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

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

Overcoming a sixteen-point hole in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious 38-37 at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

While the Rams had become the first to earn a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks booked their return to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference race with a 12-3 mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record.

Action Recap

Quarterback Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two scoring throws, culminating in the tying score to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Kenneth Walker III burst through for a long touchdown run for Seattle.

Rams cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a short score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the comeback with a 58-yard punt return.

Darnold then connected with AJ Barner in the endzone, and a successful two-point play forced the game into an extra period.

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