Seattle Seahawks Punch Play-off Berth with Thrilling Overtime Victory over Rams.

Game-winning play in overtime

Receiver Saubert executed the game-winning two-point conversion for Seattle.

The Seattle Seahawks engineered a remarkable comeback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their place in the postseason.

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed by a single point at home, registering their fifth straight win.

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

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference standings with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an 11-4 record.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Sam Darnold threw two picks but recovered to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to wideout Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a 13-7 advantage at the break before Walker burst through for a long touchdown run for Seattle.

Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua extended the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed provided Seattle's hope with a 58-yard punt return.

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

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

Key Stats

  • Smith-Njigba finished with 96 yards and the crucial touchdown.
  • The 23-year-old now leads the NFL with over 1,500 yards for the campaign.
