No, the 7 second delay includes audio.
The audio is going through the mics, a stage mixer, to the truck mixer and matched with the video. It's not uncommon for the audio to get slightly out of synch for a brief moment.

Originally posted by Stinky Inc.: I know that CBS was the host network and several of the songs played by The Who are used as theme songs in some of their network shows. I wonder if that played a part in the selection of the performers.
The NFL produces the Super Bowl and the halftime show, CBS simply has the deal to broadcast it. The Who were hired by the NFL.
