Tight end Saubert executed the decisive two-point play for Seattle.
Seattle staged a remarkable fightback to defeat the Rams in overtime, clinching their place in the postseason.
Overcoming a sixteen-point deficit in the final period, the Seattle squad triumphed by a single point at home, notching their fifth straight win.
While the Los Angeles had become the first to earn a playoff spot earlier on Sunday, the Seattle team booked their return to the play-offs after a 24-month absence.
With this outcome, the Seahawks have taken over their Conference standings with a twelve and three record, replacing the Los Angeles, who fell to the number five playoff position with an 11-4 record.
Quarterback Darnold threw two interceptions but recovered to make two touchdown passes, including the second score to star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba in overtime.
The Rams held a six-point lead at half-time before Walker burst through for a 55-yard touchdown run for the home side.
Rams defensive back Josh Wallace then took back Darnold's initial pick for a big return, leading to a one-yard touchdown by Blake Corum on the next play.
In the fourth quarter, a touchdown from Matthew Stafford to Puka Nacua pushed the advantage to sixteen points, but Shaheed ignited the hope with a spectacular return for a score.
Darnold then found Barner in the end zone, and a converted two-point play sent the game into an extra period.
Although Puka Nacua raced in for his second touchdown in overtime, Jaxon Smith-Njigba responded in kind to setup the game-winning conversion.
