"Being a field goal kicker in the NFL is a pressure-packed job. One kick can make you an all-time hero or the worst failure in the history of the franchise. I watched Nick Lowery do it for three years with the Kansas City Chiefs and he was exceptional. He did it by focusing on his eternal purpose and not on the goalpost. He shares how to do that in this book and you don't have to be a kicker to benefit from reading it."

— Tony Dungy, Super Bowl Champion Head Coach, Pro Football Hall of Fame

"Loneliness on the sideline is what a lot of coaches and kickers have in common in critical situations. How you handle the situations usually determines whether you're successful or not. Having watched Nick closely in KC he had it mastered. Embrace the moment don't let the moment bring fear in and you'll be a winner like Nick."

— Bruce Arians, NFL Super Bowl Champion Coach, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

"As the first special teams coach, I remained deeply involved in the importance of the team's weekly preparation. No player on my team was ever going to be put in a more pressure situation and held more responsible for a win or loss than my kicker. During my 14 years in broadcasting, I started studying the place kicker performance of all NFL kickers in the league. What I found out and later shared with Nick Lowery was that he was as good, if not better than, the best kickers of his era. This book will help you understand how he developed the discipline and mental attitude that enabled him to become one of the all-time best in the NFL."

— Dick Vermeil, NFL Super Bowl Champion Head Coach, St. Louis Rams

"There was no more unique and compelling story in the NFL in the 1980s and 1990s than the story of Nick Lowery. His resilience in the wake of constant rejection was both admirable and inspiring.

It should come as no surprise that Nick Lowery is a legend in Kansas City."
