🔥 Sexy people… we brought in a LEGEND.

On this episode of Football Is Sexy, we’re joined by one of the most respected and influential minds in NFL history, Super Bowl Champion Head Coach Bruce Arians.

Known as the Quarterback Whisperer, Coach Arians helped shape and elevate some of the greatest QBs ever, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck, Carson Palmer, and Ben Roethlisberger, and built a fearless football legacy rooted in leadership, trust, grit, and truth-telling.

Coach Arians takes us behind the scenes of what made the Buccaneers Super Bowl run so special, how Brady really joined Tampa during COVID, what makes a QB built for the moment, and why football leadership matters more now than ever.

We also break down Wild Card Weekend, talk modern coaching pressure, QB measurables (yes… height matters 👀), sideline blowups, and why Arians continues to be one of the most important voices in football culture, not just for winning, but for how he leads, teaches, and makes space for the next generation (including women in coaching).

This one is REAL, FUNNY, and FULL of gems.

No risk it… no biscuit. 🏈🔥

Kickers don’t get enough love… so today we’re giving them ALL of it.

Monica Madrid sits down with Nick Lowery — Kansas City Chiefs all-time leading scorer, 18-year NFL vet, 3x Pro Bowler, 7x All-Pro, humanitarian, speaker, and author to break down the side of football most fans forget…

The kicker mindset.

The pressure. The silence. The loneliness.

And that one moment when the entire season comes down to a single swing of the leg.

With the NFL postseason heating up and the Super Bowl right around the corner, Nick shares what it’s really like to perform under the biggest lights — plus legendary stories about Joe Montana, Arrowhead energy, and why being “locked in” is deeper than hype… it’s discipline.

Nick also talks Chiefs football today, what he thinks went wrong, and what a team needs to reset when the dynasty finally hits fatigue.

If you’ve ever blamed a kicker… you NEED this episode.
