Seattle Seahawks Punch Postseason Berth with Thrilling Overtime Victory over Rams.

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

Overcoming a 30-14 hole in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious 38-37 at home, notching their fifth straight victory.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team booked their return to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.

With this outcome, the Seattle now lead their Conference standings with a 12-3 mark, replacing the Rams, who fell to the fifth seed with an eleven and four standing.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to deliver two scoring throws, culminating in the second score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

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

Los Angeles defensive back Wallace then returned Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a one-yard score by Corum on the next play.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

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

Although Puka Nacua scored for his another TD in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the decisive conversion.
