Tight end Eric Saubert executed the decisive two-point conversion for the Seahawks.
Seattle engineered a stunning fightback to defeat the Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the postseason.
Rallying from a sixteen-point hole in the fourth quarter, the Seattle squad triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth consecutive victory.
While the Los Angeles had already secured a post-season berth earlier on game day, the Seattle team secured their place to the play-offs after a two-year absence.
With this outcome, the Seattle have taken over their division's race with a 12-3 record, supplanting the Rams, who fell to the number five playoff position with an eleven and four record.
Quarterback Darnold had two interceptions but recovered to make two touchdown passes, including the second TD to wideout Smith-Njigba in overtime.
The Rams held a six-point advantage at half-time before Kenneth Walker III broke free for a long touchdown run for the home side.
Rams cornerback Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a short score by Corum on the ensuing snap.
In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the Rams' lead to 30-14, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular return for a score.
Darnold then connected with AJ Barner in the endzone, and a successful two-point play sent the contest into overtime.
Although Puka Nacua raced in for his another touchdown in OT, Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning score.
