Seattle Seahawks Secure Play-off Spot with Nail-biting Extra Time Victory over Rams.
Receiver Saubert executed the game-winning two-point conversion for Seattle.
The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable comeback to overcome the Rams in extra time, clinching their place in the postseason.
Rallying from a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth consecutive win.

Action Highlights

Los Angeles defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's first pick for 56 yards, setting up a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.
In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua extended the advantage to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a spectacular punt return.
Darnold then found AJ Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion sent the game into overtime.
Although Puka Nacua raced in for his second touchdown in overtime, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to setup the game-winning score.
