This will be the fifth season as the title sponsor of the LEXUS HALFTIME SHOW for Thursday Night Football on NFL Network but the first time the luxury car’s brand will be extended across three broadcasters. “The LEXUS HALFTIME SHOW sponsorship on Thursday Night Football gives us the opportunity to reach a premium, live-viewing audience in a contextually relevant way by incorporating high impact NFL content,” said Brian Smith, Vice President, Lexus marketing. “We’re pleased to renew this partnership with CBS and NFL Network, which now includes NBC, to the Thursday night franchise.” CBS and NBC are each scheduled to broadcast five Thursday Night Football games in 2016, with each game simulcast on NFL Network. NFL Network is also scheduled to televise eight other matchups -- including two Saturday games and two Sunday games.

About Thursday Night Football Thursday Night Football started in 2006 with an eight-game schedule exclusively on NFL Network. By 2012, Thursday Night Football had grown to a 13-game schedule exclusively on NFL Network, where it remained through the 2013 season. For both the 2014 and 2015 seasons, CBS partnered with NFL Network to present an expanded 16-game Thursday Night Football schedule. In February of 2016, the NFL announced that both CBS and NBC would broadcast five Thursday Night Football games, growing the package to 10 broadcast games in 2016 and 2017 from eight in 2014 and 2015. For the 16 games of the 2015 schedule, Thursday Night Football on CBS and NFL Network (and over-the-air stations) averaged a 7.9 HH rating and 13.0M viewers, up +59% and +61% respectively from 2013 when there were 13 games solely on NFL Network. The 2015 season was the most-watched and highest-rated Thursday Night Football season ever. Popularity of NFL Games NFL content has never been more popular across the media landscape. According to the Nielsen Company, 199 million people tuned into the 2015 NFL regular season representing 78 percent of all television homes and 67 percent of potential viewers in the U.S. NFL games accounted for the top 25 and 46 of the 50 most-watched TV shows among all programming in 2015.

    Hosting a Lifeway Simulcast What is a Simulcast? A Simple Answer — a simulcast is a live internet broadcast of an event from a single venue into multiple venues – such as your own environment. Thus a simultaneous event occurs in both the origin venue and in many satellite locations — your church, home or laptop! What do I need to host a Simulcast? In order to host a simulcast you need to make sure you have the following: • An Internet Connection • A desktop or laptop computer • A mobile phone or tablet Internet Connection Your Internet connection should be one of the following: • DSL — service is faster than dial up and runs through your phone line • Broadband or Cable Modem — this is a dedicated line from your cable service What is the minimum connection speed that you recommend? We recommend that the minimum connection be 700kbps (1MB for good quality; 2.5mpbs for best quality) download speed. You may test your connection’s speed by going to http://www.speedtest.net. If your download speed is less than the suggested minimum, then you have the following options: • Connect at the lowest speed we broadcast with (500k) and understand that the quality of the stream may be a bit less than you are used to. • Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and request a faster connection. In some cases, your current service provider may offer a higher rate of speed for the same rate you are already playing. Computer These are the suggested requirements for your PC or Mac for a successful webcast: Software Requirements: Browsers We recommend a “neutral” browser, or one that doesn’t depend on the operating system of your computer.
