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

Game-winning play in overtime

Tight end Eric Saubert executed the decisive two-point conversion for the Seahawks.

Seattle staged a remarkable comeback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, clinching their spot in the postseason.

Rallying from a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, registering their fifth consecutive win.

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

With this result, the Seahawks have taken over their division's race with a twelve and three record, replacing the Rams, who fell to the fifth playoff position with an 11-4 standing.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Darnold had two picks but regrouped to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying TD to star receiver Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a six-point lead at the break before Walker broke free for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.

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

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then found AJ Barner in the endzone, and a successful conversion forced the game into overtime.

Although Nacua scored for his second touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning conversion.

Key Performances

  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba posted ninety-six receiving yards and the overtime touchdown.
  • The 23-year-old now leads the NFL with 1,541 receiving yards for the campaign.
