Default Watching NFL outside of US

Thought I had Slingbox working but got the dreaded can't connect message and now that I've left home there's not much to do about it. So, any good ways to watch (NFL) football on the computer from Europe?

Maybe this will help ... I've had good luck listening to NFL games via NFL.com. There's a pay subscription link.

If you are a Seahawk fan, it's probably a good thing you can't watch the games or you're going to have a heartburn. I have one right now after these losers played like girls against San Francisco.

Justin.tv will have the games but the NFL usually shuts them down by half time.

Hey Vagabond I'm thinking it may be a good year to take up tennis, or maybe field hockey, poker, lacrosse, chess, zzzzzzzzzzz . . . . . . . .

The NFL has a package for people outside the U.S. which I think is around $250. You can watch any game and up to 4 games at a time. It has the pause and rewind feature among other things. You have to be outside the U.S. or use a VPN to sign up if you are back in the U.S. Go to NFL.com and select game pass to see the details.

Ditto on the NFL Game Pass. I have used it before briefly and it works really well overseas. Their internet feed was always HD and I never had any problem. You can split screen and watch 4 games simultaneously, or 2, or just one. That weekend's games are archived so you can watch them later in the week.

Also, they have some passes and specials and promo's. One year I only bought the first weekend (like this weekend) and I paid $30 maybe and then cancelled it. Then they sent me another solicitation and I watched one weekend of the playoffs. It was way better than watching sumo wrestling.

Bottom line: if you're an NFL junkie, the Game Pass is probably what you want.

Why not just read a book?

The NFL season doesn't start until Dec. Until then, I watch football on Saturdays!
