Seahawks Punch Postseason Berth with Thrilling Overtime Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

Seattle engineered a stunning fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their place in the postseason.

Rallying from a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed 38-37 at home, registering their fifth consecutive victory.

While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a post-season berth earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks booked their return to the play-offs after a two-year hiatus.

With this result, the Seahawks have taken over their division's standings with a twelve and three record, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the fifth seed with an eleven and four standing.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Darnold threw two picks but regrouped to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying TD to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a six-point lead at the break before Walker broke free for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.

Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, setting up a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the hope with a 58-yard return for a score.

Darnold then found Barner in the end zone, and a converted two-point play sent the game into overtime.

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