Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Los Angeles Rams.

Decisive play in the extra period

Tight end Saubert made the game-winning two-point conversion for Seattle.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable comeback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the NFL play-offs.

Rallying from a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seattle squad emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

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

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference race with a 12-3 mark, replacing the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The Rams held a six-point advantage at half-time before Walker broke free for a 55-yard scoring dash for the home side.

Los Angeles cornerback Wallace then returned Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a one-yard touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Stafford to Nacua pushed the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed provided Seattle's hope with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then found Barner in the endzone, and a converted two-point play sent the game into overtime.

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