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

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

Rallying from a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad emerged victorious 38-37 at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a playoff berth earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team secured their place to the postseason after a 24-month hiatus.

With this outcome, the Seahawks now lead their division's race with a twelve and three mark, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Sam Darnold had two picks but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, including the second TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a 13-7 lead at the break before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a long touchdown run for Seattle.

Los Angeles defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's initial interception for a big return, leading to a short score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

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

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his second touchdown in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.

• Jaxon Smith-Njigba posted ninety-six receiving yards and the crucial touchdown.
• The 23-year-old tops the NFL with 1,541 receiving yards for the season.
