The Seattle Seahawks won a crucial Thursday night game against the Rams, completing an improbable comeback for a 38-37 overtime win.
Summary of the game
According to the noise-reduced PFF score, the Rams should have won the game because they were more consistent, but they gave up a punt-return touchdown and three two-point conversions. It’s also notable that all three of the Seahawks’ offensive touchdowns came on single big plays rather than sustained drives. Nevertheless, the Rams still had plenty of opportunities to finish the game in the fourth quarter.
Submit summary
The Rams’ passing game looked much better than in the first clash between these two teams, as the Seahawks failed to sack Matthew Stafford once while the Rams gained yards through the air. The Seahawks’ passing attack was shut down for most of the game, but they had two big plays: a screen for running back Kenneth Walker III early in the game and a play-action shot for AJ Barner late in the fourth quarter.
Summary received
It says something about a receiver when it feels like they’re out for most of a game and still finish with a team-high 96 yards on 12 targets. Cooper Kupp and AJ Barner both added two crucial catches late in the game.
Puka Nacua racked up a career-high 225 receiving yards in a losing effort. His 125 yards after the catch are the second-most by any player this season.
Hasty summary
