SUPER BOWL 50 Programming– SUNDAY, FEB. 7, 2016
11:00 AM, ET: NFL FILMSSUPER BOWL 50: BEFORE THEY WERE PROS – Through the lens of SUPER BOWL 50 and the Super Bowl High School Honor Roll, we will showcase the impact of high school football across America. In SUPER BOWL 50: BEFORE THEY WERE PROS we will follow NFL players and legends who made it to the pinnacle of their sport as they go back to the communities that helped shape them into men of high character. NFL Films will follow these players to capture the lessons that the game of football has taught them by highlighting stories of family, resiliency, teamwork and mentorship.
12:00 NOON, ET: ROAD TO THE SUPER BOWL – ROAD TO THE SUPER BOWL is NFL Films’ annual look back at the greatest sights and sounds of the 2015 NFL season. Culled by NFL Films producers, the one-hour special will feature the best of nearly 100 players and coaches wired for sound, focusing on the most exciting moments and the best teams on the journey to Santa Clara for SUPER BOWL 50. Original orchestral music was once again used in producing the show. ROAD TO THE SUPER BOWL debuted following the 1969 season.
1:00 PM, ET: PHIL SIMMS ALL-IRON TEAM: SUPER BOWL EDITION presented by GEICO – A true football lovers’ show, CBS Sports’ lead NFL analyst and former N.Y. Giants Super Bowl XXI MVP Phil Simms will take a look back at the evolution of the Super Bowl over the last 50 years and will highlight a player or coach from each decade that represents what the Super Bowl was about at that time. Those highlighted include: Minnesota Vikings legendary Hall of Fame head coach Bud Grant (1970’s), Chicago Bears Hall of Famer Mike Singletary (1980’s), Hall of Famer Deion Sanders (1990’s), Drew Bledsoe, talking about the Patriots teams of the 2000s, as well as others. In addition, the show will feature legendary broadcaster Dick Enberg, who called eight Super Bowls, including the first one where Simms worked as an analyst in 1996. Enberg will talk about his memories as a broadcaster, including being involved with Super Bowl I in Los Angeles. [The All-Iron Trophy is an old-fashioned iron, emblematic of Simms’ obsession with ironing. According to his mother, as a child, Phil pressed his football and baseball uniforms, and to this day remains committed to creases.]
2:00-6:00 PM, ET: THE SUPER BOWL TODAY – With a focus on celebrating the pageantry of SUPER BOWL 50 and the teams and players participating, THE SUPER BOWL TODAY also will look back at the history leading up to the game with special features, historic vignettes that encapsulate the eras surrounding the Super Bowl, past and present player interviews and will look to the future of what the Super Bowl will be like in the next 50 years. (More details on features will be announced in the coming weeks.) Originating live from sets at Super Bowl City at the foot of Market Street in San Francisco and Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, James Brown, Boomer Esiason, Bill Cowher, Tony Gonzalez and Bart Scott, along with Ian Eagle and Greg Gumbel, will host the Network’s pre-game show previewing all the football and excitement leading up to SUPER BOWL 50.

Station assignments will be issued 12 days prior to broadcast.In order to make TV Guide's listing deadline, we are asking for immediate turnaround for game change requests. Should the situation warrant, CBS Sports may need to make further changes in station assignments during the week leading up to each game (e.g., blackout lifted).Therefore, we will also send revised regionalizations six days in advance. Final Regionalizations will be sent on the Friday preceding each Sunday game.
Important Note:The NFL will be implementing "flexible scheduling" for Weeks 11-17.It is our intention to confirm the Games/Windows twelve (12) days in advance; however, there is the possibility that on one or two occasions, scheduling will be confirmed six (6) days in advance.
