Seattle Seahawks Punch Play-off Spot with Thrilling Extra Time Victory over Rams.

The Seattle Seahawks staged a stunning fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a sixteen-point deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed 38-37 at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

While the Los Angeles had already secured a playoff spot earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks booked their return to the play-offs after a two-year absence.

With this result, the Seahawks have taken over their Conference race with a twelve and three mark, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the fifth seed with an 11-4 record.

Action Highlights

Quarterback Darnold had two picks but regrouped to make two touchdown passes, including the tying TD to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The visitors held a six-point advantage at the break before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a long scoring dash for Seattle.

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

In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard punt return.

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

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