I'm sure NBC gets a bunch and the NFL has to get some. But does anyone know exactly how much goes to who?

I would think it goes something like this.

1. NBC pays NFL for exclusive broadcast rights of Super Bowl.
2. NBC sells commercial time.
3. Profit!

That's it. The network pays the NFL for the rights to the game. That's the league sole income on the TV deal. The network then absorbs all the costs of airing the game, sells commercials and keeps what's left over. I think this year it cost NBC 40 million for the game.

Pretty sure all advertising revenue goes to NBC.

NBC pays the NFL for the exclusive rights to broadcast the Super Bowl, though. I don't know exactly how much they pay, but I'd assume it's a pretty significant chunk of money. So I guess you could say the NFL indirectly gets part of the advertising revenue.

Not sure how it is distributed but a lot of people got ripped off by screwed up ads.

All the regular season games, playoffs, even preseason. The NFL has the biggest TV contracts by a big margin for a reason.

I'd like a stat on that... it's gotta cost more for the rights to the SB.


Wow that seems cheap. And they sold adds for $206+Million.

Super Bowl is on a yearly rotation. CBS - FOX - NBC.

TV Contracts:
2006-2011
CBS ($622.5 million/yr)
FOX ($712.5 million/yr)
NBC ($650 million/yr)
ESPN ($1.1 billion/yr)
NFL Network ($0/yr)
Total: $3.735 billion/yr

DirecTV also pays $700 million a year for the Sunday Ticket package. Each team in the NFL gets around $110 million per year from the TV contracts alone.

WTH does that have to do with the topic? Thats the YEARLY contract not the rights to the SB.

There are no rights to the Super Bowl. Super Bowl rights are given by TV Contracts and each year it is rotated between the networks.

There is no specific "right" to the SB. The contracts INCLUDE the Super Bowl, which are rotated amongst the networks. NBC will have it next in 2012.
