The August 11th, 2023 episode of the Vikings Daily Opener is a must-listen for Minnesota Vikings fans. The Minnesota Vikings' preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks last night resulted in a 24-13 loss. However, there were still some positives to take away from the game. Running back Ty Chandler and wide receiver Jalen Reagor both delivered standout performances during the opening half of the game. Chandler displayed good vision and burst, with 11 carries for 41 yards and four receptions for 29 yards. Reagor caught everything thrown his way and displayed impressive hands with his four receptions for 55 yards, including one hard hit over the middle.

On the other hand, certain players had disappointing showings, such as safety Lewis Cine and cornerback Andrew Booth Jr. Cine struggled with tackling, which led to him getting blown up by both blockers and ball carriers. Booth Jr. allowed a touchdown by allowing the wide receiver to get behind him in the red zone. Meanwhile, Coach Kevin O'Connell chose not to challenge a bad call on a great Jordan Addison catch. Although there was clear and obvious visual evidence that Addison got both feet down before going out of bounds, O'Connell did not see the catch and did not think there was enough opinion from anyone on the sideline to warrant a challenge.

Apart from the game, the number 30 has been worn by several standout players throughout the history of the Minnesota Vikings. One of the most notable of these players is Bill Brown, who played for the Vikings from 1962 to 1974. Brown was a powerful runner with excellent receiving skills, and he was also a leader on and off the field, earning admiration for his work ethic and team-first attitude. C.J. Ham, who currently plays for the Minnesota Vikings, has also been a reliable fullback for the team since 2017 and has been instrumental in opening up running lanes for the Vikings' talented running backs.

The Vikings may have lost their preseason game to the Seahawks, there were still some positives to take away from the individual performances of certain players.
