Seattle Seahawks Punch Postseason Spot with Thrilling Extra Time Triumph over Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable fightback to overcome the Rams in extra time, clinching their spot in the NFL play-offs.

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

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

With this result, the Seahawks now lead their division's race with a 12-3 mark, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a six-point advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a long scoring dash for Seattle.

Rams cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's first interception for a big return, setting up a short touchdown by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Nacua pushed the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed provided Seattle's hope with a spectacular punt return.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the endzone, and a converted two-point play forced the contest into an extra period.

Although Nacua raced in for his another TD in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.

Notable Stats

• Smith-Njigba posted ninety-six yards and the overtime touchdown.
• The 23-year-old now leads the NFL with over 1,500 receiving yards for the season.
• Nacua is runner-up with 1,367, after claiming a personal-best 225 receiving yards on twelve receptions in this contest.
