Seahawks Punch Play-off Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

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

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, registering their fifth straight win.

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a post-season berth earlier on game day, the Seahawks secured their place to the postseason after a 24-month absence.

With this result, the Seahawks have taken over their division's standings with a twelve and three record, replacing the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five playoff position with an 11-4 standing.

Game Recap

Quarterback Sam Darnold had two interceptions but recovered to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to wideout Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

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

Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, setting up a one-yard touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed provided Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score.

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

Although Puka Nacua raced in for his another touchdown in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the decisive conversion.
