Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a stunning fightback to defeat the Rams in extra time, securing their place in the postseason.

Overcoming a sixteen-point hole in the final period, the Seahawks triumphed 38-37 at home, notching their fifth straight victory.

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 play-offs after a two-year absence.

With this result, the Seahawks now lead their division's race with a twelve and three mark, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record.

Action Recap

Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to make two scoring throws, including the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.

The Rams held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.

Rams cornerback Wallace then returned Darnold's initial interception for 56 yards, setting up a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.

In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a spectacular return for a score.

Darnold then found Barner in the endzone, and a successful conversion forced the game into overtime.

Although Nacua scored for his another touchdown in overtime, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
