Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Spot with Nail-biting Overtime Triumph over Los Angeles Rams.

Seattle engineered a stunning fightback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, clinching their place in the NFL play-offs.

Overcoming a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad emerged victorious 38-37 at home, notching their fifth straight win.

While the Rams had become the first to earn a post-season spot earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks secured their place to the postseason after a two-year absence.

With this result, the Seattle now lead their division's standings with a 12-3 record, replacing the Los Angeles, who fell to the fifth seed with an 11-4 record.

Game Highlights

Signal-caller Sam Darnold had two picks but recovered to deliver two touchdown passes, culminating in the tying score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.

The Rams held a 13-7 advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III burst through for a long scoring dash for Seattle.

Rams cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, setting up a short score by Blake Corum on the next play.

In the final stanza, a touchdown from Stafford to Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular return for a score.

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

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