Rams were the first team to score an OT TD on the opening drive and lost

This is the new overtime era in one sentence: the Rams scored a touchdown on the opening OT possession and still lost. In Seahawks–Rams (38–37), L.A. went first in OT and hit Stafford → Puka Nacua for a TD to take the lead. Seattle answered with its own TD, then won the game by converting the 2-point try (Darnold to TE Eric Saubert). It was basically inevitable once the NFL expanded the “both teams get the ball” OT format to the regular season—now you can’t assume “OT TD = game over,” and Seattle became the first team to actually flip the script like this. Is this a better product, or does it make OT feel too much like a mini shootout? #NFL #Seahawks #Rams #Overtime #TNF #NFLRules #MatthewStafford #SamDarnold #PukaNacua
