Tight end Eric Saubert executed the decisive two-point conversion for the Seahawks.
The Seattle Seahawks engineered a stunning fightback to overcome the Rams in overtime, securing their spot in the postseason.
Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad emerged victorious by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.
While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a playoff spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team booked their return to the play-offs after a two-year absence.
With this result, the Seattle have taken over their division's race with a 12-3 mark, supplanting the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five seed with an eleven and four standing.
Signal-caller Sam Darnold threw two interceptions but regrouped to deliver two touchdown passes, culminating in the second score to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.
The visitors held a 13-7 lead at half-time before Walker broke free for a long touchdown run for the home side.
Rams defensive back Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for 56 yards, leading to a one-yard touchdown by Blake Corum on the ensuing snap.
In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a 58-yard punt return.
Darnold then connected with AJ Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion forced the game into an extra period.
Although Nacua raced in for his another touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
