The touchdown capped a nine-game, 85-yard drive that shortened the game by 4 minutes and 58 seconds.
Nacua caught a 58-yard pass from midfield late in the third quarter to set up the Rams’ first score at the 4-yard line.
A few plays later, Stafford turned his head to the right and passed to the left side to Nacua, who caught the ball in the end zone for a touchdown.
Nakua now has six catches for 133 yards and a touchdown.
Stafford’s MVP profile continues to grow, as he completed 18 of 25 for 303 yards and two touchdowns.
Seahawks safety Kobe Bryant had his right leg rolled up while rushing toward the goal line and had to exit the rush. A Prime Video live broadcast showed him heading to the locker room after being checked on the sidelines.
