What did Doogie observe during Day 1 of Vikings training camp?
Super Bowl, no problem.
Daily is daily Vikings entertainment. I just want the Vikings to win a Super Bowl before we die. I will ride with this group. Seriously, man.
Please. And away we go. Okay, Darren Doogie Wolfson in the house from the five Eyewitness News sports departments. He was at camp along with Judd's camp notes and myself. We bonded, all three of us. Sweating, sweating up a storm. Sweating to the football. It was pretty grueling yesterday. So we'll get into Doogie talked to a bunch of different Vikings players yesterday and picked up some interesting information. So we'll kind of put a quarter in Doogie here and get his thoughts. But if you guys are looking for a fun little snack over the weekend or maybe a dinner option, Pep's Legit Pizza. is what i would recommend stone baked cracker thin crust a bunch of different topping styles if you're watching on youtube you can see how delicious these look if you're listening on apple and spotify i am drooling as i talk about this right now you can find them at kowalski's luns and byerly's a hundred years of family recipes culminating in these glorious peps legit pizzas
And it's always fun when you guys send us pictures of your of your baked peps legit pizzas on social media. So send them in and we can we can all salivate together. So Dukes, what we'll just we'll go around a bunch of different places here. But like, what are some of the things you learned talking to various Vikings figures yesterday in Egan?
It's fun to be back. I mean, I get the acclimation period. I mean, really, things won't ramp up until Monday. I suppose there will be some sort of new energy on Saturday when the fans first show up. It's across the league. It's not like the Vikings are in a unique situation, but it felt like an OTA situation. or a minicamp practice. That being said, good to see the guys. More than anything, Phil, and hey, I get it, it can change snap of the fingers, but literally nobody of significance is on the physically unable to perform list. So Blake Cashman, his finger, we alluded to this last week, he's fine. Caleb Banks, surgically repaired foot, he's okay. Had a nice conversation with Caleb post-practice. Good to see him get at least some reps with the first team.
Aaron Jones Sr., he told me it's showtime when it comes to the run game. Just the way he lit up talking about the presence of Frank Smith. Now, Phil, I need to see it to truly believe it. We've been talking about this for how many years under KOC, but it does seem like, and hey, Phil, you and I were watching the old lineman drills at one point. They're moving more than I ever remember under KOC, some new leadership there with the O-line. But the Frank Smith presence, what exactly will that look like come week one against the Packers? Also, getting to know Jamal Adams, if you had asked me on Monday night, Phil, when at Prez, P-R-E-Z on Twitter, broke the news he was coming to the Vikings, I thought in that moment,
Long shot to make the team. Had enough knowledge in that moment to know that there wasn't going to be any guaranteed money. Of course, it was going to be a one-year deal. But watching him move on Wednesday, then talking with him after practice, I think Ivan Pace is in trouble. Like, I think it's one or the other, Ivan Pace or Jamal Adams. Not sure both make the 53-man roster. I was thoroughly impressed. with Jamal Adams. Why he wanted to come here, the connection to Nolan Teasley, playing under B-Flow, saying, hey, there are certain defensive coordinators you just want to play for. Had all sorts of respect when he was a Jet. B-Flow was with the Patriots. He understands the contract is what it is. And just hearing him talk about in 2022 this quad tendon injury, which I didn't really know a whole lot about.
And he said, hey, with all due respect to those recovering from a torn Achilles or torn ACL, in Jamal's mind, there isn't a tougher football injury to recover from than what he went through early 2022 season. It's taken this long, but he feels like here in year 10 that his body finally is back to where it used to be.
