Seahawks Secure Postseason Spot with Nail-biting Extra Time Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable fightback to overcome the Rams in extra time, clinching their place in the postseason.

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

While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season berth earlier on game day, the Seattle team booked their return to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this result, the Seahawks have taken over their division's standings with a twelve and three mark, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Quarterback Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to make two scoring throws, including the second score to star receiver Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The Rams held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard touchdown run for the home side.

Los Angeles cornerback Josh Wallace then returned Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, leading to a short score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular punt return.

Darnold then found AJ Barner in the end zone, and a converted conversion sent the contest into an extra period.

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his another touchdown in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
