The Week 9 game between the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks ended up being a thrilling matchup for fans.
It was a back-and-forth contest, but the Rams pulled off a much-needed victory.
This was their third win in a row, and more importantly, it kept them in the race for the best record in the NFC West.
The Rams needed overtime to win this game, but it was a win nonetheless.
Demarcus Robinson was the recipient of the game-winning touchdown pass from Matthew Stafford, grabbing the ball with one hand.
According to reporter James Palmer on X, Robinson told him that this catch was a top-two highlight from his career to this point.

Robinson was the unlikely hero in this game, as he isn’t necessarily the top receiver on the Rams’ depth chart.
When healthy, the Rams have an embarrassment of riches, which includes Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp as their top two options at receiver.
Robinson is a veteran with plenty of experience, so Stafford knew he could trust him in a key moment, even if he isn’t typically their first or second option.
The Rams are now in a prime position to compete for the NFC West title, despite being 1-4 three weeks ago.
This team has been resilient in the face of adversity, and Stafford continues to impart his wisdom to his younger teammates.
It will be interesting to see who will win the NFC West this year, given how crowded it is at the moment.
