š Share this article Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Berth with Thrilling Extra Time Victory over Rams. Tight end Saubert made the game-winning two-point play for the Seahawks. Seattle staged a remarkable fightback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, securing their spot in the NFL play-offs. Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed 38-37 at home, registering their fifth consecutive win. While the Rams had become the first to earn a playoff spot earlier on game day, the Seattle team booked their return to the postseason after a two-year hiatus. With this outcome, the Seahawks now lead their division's race with a 12-3 mark, replacing the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record. Game Highlights Quarterback Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the tying TD to star receiver Smith-Njigba in overtime. The Rams held a six-point lead at half-time before Walker broke free for a 55-yard touchdown run for Seattle. Los Angeles defensive back Wallace then returned Darnold's first pick for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Corum on the next play. In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a 58-yard punt return. Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a converted two-point play forced the game into overtime. Although Nacua raced in for his another TD in overtime, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning score. Key Performances Smith-Njigba posted 96 yards and the overtime score. The 23-year-old now leads the NFL with over 1,500 receiving yards for the season. Puka Nacua is runner-up with 1,367 yards, after claiming a personal-best two hundred twenty-five yards on 12 catches in this contest.
