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

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

Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the final period, the Seattle squad triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Rams had already secured a post-season spot earlier on game day, the Seahawks secured their place to the play-offs after a 24-month hiatus.

With this result, the Seattle now lead their Conference race with a twelve and three mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five seed with an 11-4 record.

Game Highlights

Quarterback Darnold had two picks but recovered to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the second TD to star receiver Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Walker burst through for a long touchdown run for the home side.

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

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

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

Although Nacua raced in for his another TD in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the decisive score.
