With 9:48 left in the 4th quarter, the Seahawks were down 30-14 when Seahawks QB Sam Darnold got intercepted. This brought the Rams up to a 98.8% win chance, their highest win percentage in the game.
The Rams drive immediately after goes nowhere and so they punt, but Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed runs it in for a punt return touchdown, bringing it to 30-20. The Seahawks go for a two-point conversion and succeed, now 30-22.
The Rams next drive after that Seahawks touchdown also ended in a punt with 7:09 left in the 4th Quarter, only for the Seahawks to score another touchdown in two plays, now 30-28.
The Seahawks go for another two-point conversion to tie the game. This one was initially ruled incomplete but was overturned, with how it was overturned being a rather bizarre set of specific circumstances:
Darnold unintentionally threw a backwards pass.
The pass was blocked by Rams defender Jared Verse, which bounced forward towards the end zone.
Rams Safety Kam Curl leaps forward to try to catch the bounced pass but doesn’t, arguably helping move it even further into the end zone.
However, since Darnold threw a backwards pass, that blocked pass was therefore technically a fumble.
The ball was finally just chilling out in the end zone since everyone thought it was a dead ball, so Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet simply recovered the ball… but inadvertantly (and officially) scored the two-point conversion, tying the game, 30-30.
At 2:11 left in the 4th Quarter, the Rams try to kick a field goal to potentially make it 33-30, but Rams kicker Harrison Mevis kicks it wide right.
Overtime! Rams get the ball first and get a touchdown, now 37-30, giving the ball to the Seahawks. The Seahawks then get a touchdown themselves… and they go for two points AGAIN. That attempt is successful and the Seahawks win, 38-37.
Stat-wise, the Rams outperformed the Seahawks. The Seahawks also suffered three turnovers while the Rams had none. But in the end, the Curse Wheel had spoken.
