Seattle Seahawks Punch Postseason Berth with Thrilling Extra Time Victory over Rams.

Decisive play in overtime

Receiver Saubert executed the game-winning two-point play for the Seahawks.

Seattle staged a stunning fightback to defeat the Rams in extra time, securing their place in the NFL play-offs.

Rallying from a 30-14 deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed 38-37 at home, registering their fifth consecutive win.

While the Rams had already secured a playoff berth earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team booked their return to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this result, the Seattle now lead their division's race with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the fifth seed with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold had two interceptions but recovered to deliver two scoring throws, including the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

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

Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's first pick for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed provided the comeback with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion forced the contest into an extra period.

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