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

The Seattle Seahawks engineered a remarkable comeback to defeat the Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks 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 booked their return to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this outcome, the Seahawks have taken over their Conference race with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the fifth seed with an eleven and four standing.

Action Highlights

Signal-caller Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, culminating in the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The visitors held a six-point advantage at the break before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a 55-yard touchdown run for Seattle.

Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's first interception for 56 yards, setting up a one-yard score by Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then found AJ Barner in the endzone, and a successful two-point play sent the contest into an extra period.

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his second TD in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the game-winning score.
