They won't change the date of the Super Bowl... it's too late to change the date of the Super Bowl.

This. Everything is set in stone like a year in advance, the Super Bowl is not moving.

Superbowl was moved after 9/11- Following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks earlier in the season, the NFL postponed a week of regular-season games and moved the league's playoff schedule back. As a result, Super Bowl XXXVI was rescheduled from the original date of January 27 to February 3, becoming the first Super Bowl played in February.

9/11 reset the calendars on everything. Though tragic, what happened this week was no 9/11.

It is also far easier to move something half a year out than a month out.
