The Seahawks (4-5) got the ball first in the extra session, but Kenneth Walker III, who rushed for a game-high 83 yards, was stopped on fourth-and-1 from the Los Angeles 16-yard line. The Rams then needed only four plays to score the game-winning touchdown.
Rookie safety Kamren Kinchens intercepted two passes in the fourth quarter — returning one of them 103 yards for a touchdown to break a 13-13 tie — for the Rams (4-4), who won their third consecutive game.

But Bass came to the Bills’ rescue, and following his kick, a lateral play by the Dolphins went nowhere. Allen finished with 235 yards, three touchdowns and an interception on 25-of-39 passing. Tagovailoa completed 25 of 28 passes for 231 yards and two TDs.
