Seattle Seahawks Secure Postseason Berth with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Los Angeles Rams.
Receiver Saubert made the game-winning two-point play for the Seahawks.
The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable comeback to overcome the Rams in overtime, clinching their spot in the postseason.
Rallying from a 30-14 deficit in the final period, the Seahawks triumphed by a single point at home, registering their fifth straight victory.
While the Los Angeles had already secured a playoff spot earlier on game day, the Seahawks secured their place to the play-offs after a two-year absence.
With this outcome, the Seahawks now lead their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, replacing the Los Angeles, who dropped to the fifth seed with an eleven and four record.
Game Highlights
Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to deliver two scoring throws, culminating in the second score to wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the extra period.
The visitors held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard scoring dash for Seattle.
Los Angeles cornerback Wallace then returned Darnold's first interception for a big return, leading to a one-yard score by Corum on the next play.
In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed provided Seattle's hope with a spectacular return for a score.
Darnold then found AJ Barner in the end zone, and a successful two-point play forced the contest into an extra period.
Although Nacua scored for his another TD in overtime, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning score.
