Receiver Eric Saubert executed the decisive two-point play for the Seahawks.
The Seattle Seahawks engineered a stunning comeback to defeat the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the postseason.
Overcoming a 30-14 hole in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks emerged victorious by a single point at home, registering their fifth straight victory.
While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a playoff berth earlier on game day, the Seattle team secured their place to the postseason after a 24-month absence.
With this result, the Seahawks now lead their Conference race with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five seed with an 11-4 standing.
Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to make two touchdown passes, culminating in the tying TD to wideout Smith-Njigba in overtime.
The visitors held a 13-7 lead at the break before Walker broke free for a long scoring dash for Seattle.
Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's first interception for a big return, leading to a one-yard touchdown by Corum on the ensuing snap.
In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Stafford to Nacua extended the Rams' lead to sixteen points, but Rashid Shaheed ignited Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard punt return.
Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion sent the game into an extra period.
Although Nacua scored for his another TD in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning score.
