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

Decisive play in overtime

Tight end Saubert executed the game-winning two-point conversion for the Seahawks.

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

Overcoming a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seattle squad emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth consecutive victory.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a playoff spot earlier on game day, the Seahawks secured their place to the postseason after a 24-month hiatus.

With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the fifth seed with an 11-4 standing.

Action Highlights

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

The visitors held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.

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

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the hope with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then connected with AJ Barner in the endzone, and a converted conversion sent the contest into overtime.

Although Nacua scored for his second TD in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the decisive score.

Notable Performances

  • Smith-Njigba posted ninety-six yards and the overtime touchdown.
  • The young star tops the NFL with 1,541 yards for the season.
  • Nacua is runner-up with 1,367 yards, adding a career-high two hundred twenty-five yards on 12 receptions in this contest.
