Receiver Eric Saubert executed the game-winning two-point play for Seattle.
The Seattle Seahawks staged a remarkable fightback to overcome the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, securing their spot in the postseason.
Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.
While the Rams had already secured a post-season spot earlier on game day, the Seattle team secured their place to the play-offs after a two-year absence.
With this outcome, the Seahawks have taken over their Conference standings with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Rams, who dropped to the fifth playoff position with an eleven and four standing.
Quarterback Darnold had two interceptions but recovered to make two scoring throws, culminating in the tying score to wideout Smith-Njigba in overtime.
The visitors held a six-point advantage at the break before Walker broke free for a 55-yard touchdown run for Seattle.
Los Angeles cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's first interception for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard score by Corum on the next play.
In the final stanza, a scoring pass from Matthew Stafford to Nacua extended the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed provided Seattle's comeback with a spectacular return for a score.
Darnold then found AJ Barner in the end zone, and a successful two-point play sent the game into an extra period.
Although Nacua raced in for his another TD in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the decisive conversion.
