- List_of_NFL_on_Thanksgiving_Day_broadcasters abstract "The following is a list of the television networks and announcers to broadcast the NFL's annual series of Thanksgiving Day games. Since the NFL merged with the AFL in 1970, the games had been held only in Detroit and Dallas. Because of TV network commitments, to make sure that both the AFC-carrying network and the NFC-carrying network got at least one game each, one of these games was between NFC opponents, and one featured AFC-NFC opponents. Thus, the AFC could showcase only one team on Thanksgiving, and the AFC team was always the visiting team. This was in spite of the fact that the AFL had fielded annual Thanksgiving games since its inception in 1960, six years before the NFL's Cowboys first played on the holiday.The two afternoon games are held at Detroit (12:30 p.m. EST) and Dallas (4:15 p.m. EST), respectively. Detroit always hosts the first game because a 12:30 p.m. EST kick-off at Dallas would be 11:30 a.m. local time (CST), and the NFL avoids starting games before noon locally. The two games rotate annually as intra-conference (NFC vs. NFC) and inter-conference (AFC vs. NFC) games. This is largely due to the format of the television contract with CBS and Fox. CBS usually broadcasts Sunday afternoon games involving the AFC team as the road team, and Fox usually broadcasts Sunday afternoon games involving the NFC team as the road team. Since both Detroit and Dallas are NFC teams, in order for CBS to televise one of the games, one game must be against an AFC opponent. Inter-conference games of which the AFC team is away, are televised on CBS. For fairness between both networks and markets, the two games rotate annually between the two networks.The "early" game kicks off at a special time of 12:30 p.m. EST as opposed to the typical afternoon start time of 1 p.m. This provides an additional 30 minutes to prevent overlapping of the "late" game, and also gives both networks time for a pregame show and some additional time for a halftime concert. In addition, the "early" game's network pre-game show is 30 minutes (12:00-12:30 p.m.) and the "late" game's pre-game show is 45 minutes (3:30-4:15 p.m.)On December 14, 2011, the NFL, along with CBS, Fox and NBC, announced the league's rights deal with all three networks was extended to the end of the 2022 season. The new rights deal also includes NBC receiving the prime time game of the Thanksgiving tripleheader previously carried by NFL Network's Thursday Night Football.".
