Overcoming a 30-14 deficit in the fourth quarter, the Seahawks triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.

Rams cornerback Wallace then returned Darnold's initial interception for a big return, leading to a one-yard touchdown by Corum on the ensuing snap. In the fourth quarter, a scoring pass from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Shaheed provided Seattle's comeback with a 58-yard return for a score. Darnold then connected with Barner in the end zone, and a successful conversion forced the game into an extra period. Although Nacua scored for his another touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba answered in kind to set up the game-winning conversion.
