Seattle engineered a stunning comeback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in extra time, clinching their spot in the NFL play-offs. Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the final period, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, registering their fifth consecutive win. While the Rams had become the first to earn a playoff berth earlier on Sunday, the Seahawks booked their return to the play-offs after a two-year hiatus. With this result, the Seattle have taken over their division's standings with a 12-3 record, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four standing. Game Highlights Quarterback Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to make two touchdown passes, including the second score to star receiver Smith-Njigba in overtime. The visitors held a 13-7 advantage at the break before Walker burst through for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle. Los Angeles cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, leading to a short score by Corum on the next play. In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Rashid Shaheed ignited the comeback with a spectacular punt return. Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a successful two-point play sent the contest into an extra period. Although Puka Nacua scored for his another touchdown in OT, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the decisive score. Key Performances Smith-Njigba finished with ninety-six receiving yards and the overtime score. The 23-year-old tops the NFL with 1,541 yards for the season. Puka Nacua is runner-up with 1,367, adding a personal-best two hundred twenty-five yards on 12 catches in this contest.
