"Sam Darnold connected with Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a touchdown in overtime, then hit a wide-open Eric Saubert for the winning two-point conversion, and the Seattle Seahawks rallied from a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit to stun the Los Angeles Rams 38-37 on Thursday night and take a one-game lead in the NFC West. The Seahawks went 3 for 3 on two-point conversions, none more improbable than the one that tied the game at 30-all in the fourth quarter."
"Darnold's deflected pass intended for Zach Charbonnet was initially ruled incomplete, but after a replay review was determined to be a backward pass. Charbonnet, who had casually picked up the loose ball in the end zone, was credited with the two points. The Rams got the ball first in overtime and Matthew Stafford connected with Puka Nacua, who cruised untouched into the end zone for a 41-yard touchdown to make it 37-30."
Sam Darnold threw an overtime touchdown to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and completed a wide-open two-point conversion to Eric Saubert to secure a 38-37 Seahawks victory over the Rams. Seattle erased a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit and converted three two-point attempts, including a replay-reviewed play ruled a backward pass that credited Zach Charbonnet with two points. The Rams scored first in overtime when Matthew Stafford found Puka Nacua for a 41-yard touchdown. Nacua finished with 12 catches for 225 yards and two TDs; Stafford passed for 457 yards and three scores. The Rams gained 581 yards without a turnover but stalled late as Seattle forced punts and a missed field goal. The win clinched a playoff spot for Seattle and gave the team a one-game NFC West lead.
