It's brought to you by millerte, the official beer sponsor of the Minnesota Vikings. And what you just heard there was creed and what you have sitting next to me right now is one of the most terrifying human beings for offensive linemen and quarterbacks Number ninety one, ladies and gentlemen.

Patrick Jones Junior.

Is with us. Pat. How are you, buddy?

Yeah?

Yeah, yeah, grab that micro a little bit closer.

There you go?

All right, So you're good?

All right? Sweet?

So Creed, how are you just done listening to Creed? Or are you just like bumped about it? I mean, this is four in a row that we've won Minnesota Vikings while listening to Creed in the locker room. Are you a fan of it? Or are you just like, Okay, can we play something else?

No? Now, I mean if we went and listn't it's to keep it going.

I have no fun where we keep it going, keep the vibes going, just keep doing what we're doing.

Yeah, you know. And here's the thing, Okay, this is this. I'll give you a little taste of how dumb I am.

Is that we all have that friend or family member that loves a song and they sing the song, but they don't know the actual lyrics to the song.

Uh huh.

So I've been annoying my wife, which I call her a monster of a wife.

She's my ultimate fun record. I love her to death.

But I'm sitting around the house for the last couple of weeks.

Singing carn you trick me higher.

And when I get to the spot where I'm like to a place where Lieon speak, and finally she broke and she's like, idiot, that is not the lyrics.

Stop singing that damn song. But you here loving it right?

Yeah?

I mean, I'm be honest. At first, I didn't really like pay attention to the song. Yeah, and then I kept hearing it and hearing it, and I'm like, okay, Like I'm like, it's a little catchy. It was really my first time really like listening to it, listening to it, and then we just kept hearing it and hearing it, and I'm just I just kind of vibed out, so it started humming it a little bit, and that kept going with the vibes.

Is there is there a song that you have absolutely decimated the lyrics to where you have been singing forever?

And then finally someone went, man, Pat, that's not what the song lyrics are.

I'm not gonna lie I probably I probably mess up the lyrics to every song. Almost almost every song I seing, I mess up the lyrics and I just kind of add my own little twist to it.

Just hope nobody hears me.

Like when I'm in the car by myself, I'm definitely making up lyrics when I'm singing songs.

Oh, it's just screaming it.

Yeah, just screaming whatever it is.

I absolutely love that.

Okay, So we were talking about this, uh uh it's a salute to troops and this week and all this week with Miller Lyte in Minnesota Vikings and uh, it's cool that we're hanging out here in American legion. You have a connection to the military. Yeah, And I'm guessing this and this is just because I was like looking up your stuff in your.

Background that you were born in Japan.

Yeah, I was.

So I'm assuming I'm only making the assumption there that that was kind of a military based kind of thing because then you go there, and then then you lived and grew up in Virginia.

Uh So a lot of people don't notice I actually got to Virginia when I was fourteen. Oh no, kidding, Yeah, So I kind of grew up everywhere I was. I lived in I lived all over the place. Like I went to like nine different schools before I turned fourteen. I was just bouncing around. I grew up in I lived in two different parts of Japan three different times. I lived in Italy, I lived in Jacksonville, Florida, and I actually lived in outside Charlotte, North Carolina's place called

So I was in I was in seventh grade.

I actually had to leave, and then I moved to North Carolina for a little bit and went to school over there for a little bit, and then I eventually came back to Japan for a little bit, and then I ended up going to Virginia permanently.

Oh wow, So now this is so you're like an army brat navy bread Okay, all right, So it was just your dad or your mom or this was my dad okay, all right, right, Oh wow, that's awesome.

What what did he do in the navy?

Yeah?

Absolutely, my dad, he was he was My dad said thirty years in the Navy. He was on ships, he was on I remember him being on a lot of aircraft carriers.

He was He did like a lot of stuff with like the IT stuff.

And the communications department and that's kind of like what's his thing.

He was a chief one on at four. Wow, that's awesome. That is so cool. That bless your dad for that. Did you ever think about doing military?

Did you ever?

I mean especially I mean Navy. Why didn't you go for a seal thing?

You know, it's crazy. I actually grew up one in to be a Navy seal.

Really.

Yeah.

So my parents they said, we're not playing for your college. So they was like, you're either going to play sports. Are you gonna go into the military. So I'm like all right. I came to Virginia when I was fourteen. That's when I really started playing football. So I was like, uh, all right, football.

Don't wor out.

I'm gonna go into the Navy like my dad, I'm gonna try to be a seal. But I just started playing football and then I just kind of fell in love with it. And then I just kept getting better and better, and then I started to get my first scholarship off, and then I was just like, wow, like, let's see how far this football so could take me.

That is sweet man, that's awesome. And the Minnesota Vikings picking up in the third round, yeah they did. Yeah, and so then this is your third season, this is my third season, third season, man, So well, you can always go back in and be a Navy Seal if you want do that.

I don't know. I love the movies. I don't know if I want to.

They told me, they told me I was too big. Yeah, it's not an easy target.

I'm too big, easy target.

That's sectacular. I love that.

Salute the service week here with the Vikings country an and of course K went over to you in the Minnesota Vikings radio network. Here's the thing, your longtime girlfriend MICHAELA. Yeah, you guys, even this season, see right there on the sidelines before a game. Yeah, and then you know with the ropes there, Yeah, but holding hands and praying then yeah, that's cool.

Yeah, that's my that's my dog, like my girlfriend. She's always been there for me. I met her my junior year college and we've just been rocking together ever since.

She's always been there for me. That's like my best friend.

Oh, I love that. That's awesome.

Now we have I haven't seen one fifteen Jersey yet here everybody's they've ordered him.

Josh Dobbs comes in. How crazy is that? I mean, of all positions? Yeah, quarterback.

He's there for five days, four days before the game, five days of Viking, and all of a sudden, now he's on the field and doing what he's doing.

How crazy is that?

It was crazy just to watch it, like just just to witness it in person and just to be out there, like just to watch the whole thing unfold and just happened like like that. It was just it was just something like out of it felt like something out of a movie. It felt crazy.

Oh. Absolutely.

So he's the first quarterback to start for three different teams in the same calendar year since nineteen fifty.

Yeah, Josh Doups, Yeah, that's insane.

It's crazy. It's crazy. It's literally mind blowing when you really think about it.

Yeah, and then we get Jaron Halls in there, you know, and all of a sudden we're like, okay, here we go. We're already going, wow, how much could he possibly you know, know, how much could KOC get him ready to go and unfortunately then he gets the concussion.

Yeah, and man, that Blue Tent was busy.

Oh yeah, yeah, it's fel because that Blue tant was very busy.

What's it like?

What's it like going in? Have you had to ever go into the Blue tent? What happens is there? Is that where you're allowed to like, you know, cry and and then obscenities and stuff like that.

No one else sees it, No one would. I've never I never had it go on to Blue tint. So I'm trying to.

But have you heard the screams from there? No, I've heard no screams. Okay, all right, I just want I just want to know. It just seems like to me that is where you're like, okay, you know what, I'm gonna limp in there and then just sit there and and ball, because that's what I would do. Speaking of that Blue tent, Uh former teammate and and how cool this storyline is with Hamlin.

From the Bills.

Yeah yeah, yeah, absolutely trying to get on the field still and everything like that. But just miraculous what happened with him and where he's come.

Yeah, that whole situation, it was, uh, that situation is it really? It really like touched me deep because that's like my dog. Like, we went to school together, we came in together Pitt. Uh, we balled together, we used to work out together. When COVID happened, we was training together the whole summer for our senior year. Uh, just working trying to reach out goals again making it to the NFL. Then that season we both became we both

That is so sweet. That that's really cool.

Yeah, I want to go back to Joshua Dobbs just for a quick second. Yeah, have you actually called him the pastronaut because apparently.

That's his nickname.

No, I haven't called him that.

Will you call him that?

He?

Are?

You just going to refuse. Pat Jones is just like, no.

I've never heard of that, So this is the first time this morning, and that.

Can't be an actual thing. But man, how incredible.

Is that when you watch, say, you know, as a defensive player yourself and on the edge, where all of a sudden you see a guy who ultimately for the Vikings, we haven't had a whole lot of You're not gonna run the ball very much with Kirk Cousins or is he gonna scramble because he didn't have to because he's just got that cannon of an arm. Yeah, but now all of a sudden, man, you think you got him? Yeah, and then now Duprees got him. Yeah, I mean that's a dead on sack. Now he's going for twenty two.

Yeah, I'm not gonna lie. I saw the play having I was like, who, I'm.

Glad we don't have to play against him, I said, because I don't know how he got out of that.

I'm just I'm glad you're on that team. Now, I'm glad you with us.

Yeah. Yeah, you're not gonna call him the past or not.

I kind of like that starting starting to starting to work for me, just a little bit here.

I saw this and maybe you did as well.

I don't know how much do you watch it and pay attention to other games going on in the league at Oliver, Do you just kind of like shut down and it's just you know, film.

And Viking stuff. No, I watched.

I watch a lot of the games.

I got a lot of friends with teammates that play on different teams, so I always tried when I'm not playing and we're not busy, I always try to tune in and check them out and see how they're doing.

Have you ever tried or attempted a field gold kick? Because Texans versus Bucks, Texans get to win thirty nine thirty seven twenty nine yard field goal, kicker goes down and they bring in the running back.

Yeah, I saw that, and he not only is.

He doing kickoffs, yeah, but he drills.

A twenty nine yard Or are you able to kick a field goal?

I'm not gonna. I grew up playing a lot of different sports, but I don't think I'm kicking that field goal own. It might not make you pass the line of scrims.

Everybody duck.

Yeah, everybody got their own towns. I know, kicking not mine. It's awesome.

I remember when I was in junior high football because I was, you know, really quite the athlete, and uh, I wasn't supposed to be that damn funny and uh at any rate they had were like, well, let's see if you can punt, and so long snapper brings it to me. I drilled him right back up the crack. I was not allowed to punt after that.

When it's too early for Christmas music to be cranking out, Like you're going to the store pad it's too early or are you like really festive and you're just like, oh, bring it on.

I mean, I'm no fun on Christmas music. I think right now it was like the perfect time to start playing it. Maybe a little after Thanksgiving, Yeah, maybe a little after things given that's when you start getting like the more the Christmas spirits.

Sure doing that, I feel that that's like the problem.

Unless you're having people over from Giving, then you can do the decorations, start doing the music and stuff like that.

But what the hell do we know? All Right, here's the thing.

Vikings Defense has been winning games here in twenty twenty three, Brian Flores and what you guys are doing, I mean, winning games for the Minnesota Vikings. It's got to be so much fun.

Yeah, No, it's definitely fun. We having a blast doing it. It's it's just how we play. We're just all coming together. Like I feel like we're still like getting everything together and we're just all starting to jail and really like do it. I feel like y'all haven't even seen our best game yet.

Yeah, but yeah, so is.

It still the Edge Department with you and dj wantam and Daniel and that.

Yeah, no, we still go by theirs department. We still that.

I love that.

So what does Daniil actually like Because for the most of us, it seems like he's like super quietest personality, seems like he's super quiet, but we don't get to see him like you guys do. Is he a great karaoke singer? We just didn't know that he just like lights up? There? Is he throwing out Will Ferrell movie lines left and rights? Is he going on and on too much about the Golden Bachelor?

What is dan'teel Hunter life?

Danil? Danil?

He's super cool dude. He like super cool guy. Once you really meet him and get to know him, you've realized he's just like a goofy big kid, Like he's just cracking jokes, always laughing, Like he's a real cool, down to earth guy. Like he's like he's like nowing you would think, like he's just a cool dude, just real down to earth and chill.

I want to think that he just eats like crap.

I mean, I know when you look at him, he's just absolutely chiseled. But I would just love to know that he's just hitting cheeseballs at home and just I.

Wish I could tell you that, but that's not true. That's not to at all.

Danil.

He locked into his diet. That's why he looks like that. He really like re really like locks into it all.

Right, Brian Flores, I mean, you guys are blitzing at a unbelievable raid still first in the NFL. You're bringing a lot of heat and stuff like that. I heard from Harrison Smith. He was talking in a postgame interview talking about this may be his favorite season. He's having so much fun playing in this. What does b flow bring to you guys and how is it connecting so

Uh.

I think it's de Fins just brings that Uh, it brings that aggressiveness, and it brings a versatility and a diversity to it. Like we have so many different friends we can line up in. There's always an answer to something. Uh, Brian Floyd. Is he just he a real smart coach. He just really knows what he's doing. You could tell like he's really passionate about it, and this is something that he really love to do. Uh So, like any look that we get, he has an answer to it

Are you trail cam in and the whole works? I mean, and then going up and sitting up in the deer stand.

Or no I was doing Yeah, I like, yeah duck hunting.

This reason, I never duck hunt because it has to be the worst possible weather day for it to be a great day to duck hunt.

So look, last year I actually went duck hunting for the first time. Yeah, and it was snowing. I wasn't prepared. I was out there some Jordan's actually a picture of it on Twitter somewhere, and I was out there in Jordan's. I actually got my first duck. We was having the guys we went with.

Oh my god? So I have no fun sharing my food. But I don't know why. Every time I eat, she just thinks my food tastes better. So it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what we get. She's always gonna ask for a bite of my food. We could get the same thing, we could really exact same thing. And she's like a bite and I'm like, you got a bite right there. I know, but George just look better. And she's just always gonna chaste my food, doesn't matter what it is.

The lighting in the restaurant, you know.

Yeah, oh god, it's the worst because I have the same thing with my monster of a wife.
