Matt Stover: Excelling Under Pressure


Listen Later

This week Andrew is joined by 2x Super Bowl Champion Matt Stover. One of the all-time great place kickers in NFL history, Matt retired after the 2009 season as the NFL’s fourth all-time leading scorer. Andrew and Matt explore the mindsets, routines, and processes that made Matt an all-time great in one of the highest-pressure jobs in sports.  This conversation is filled with important lessons, whether you are a football fan or not. Like a lot of things in life, kicking a field goal requires extraordinary focus and attention to detail—and you have to do a lot of little things right to achieve big success. Matt even walks Andrew step-by-step through the process of kicking a field goal. You'll probably never look at a field goal the same way again.
