Watching Week 1 @ Dallas Abroad

because it is on Sunday night. I think they stream that on NBC.com.

good point.

Does that make things better or worse for me?

and the next day I watch the full AND 30 minute commercial-less versions on NFL Rewind(a subscription, well worth the money)..I also get the coaches tape as well..The subscription is good through(up to?) training camp, which means I could still watch the playoffs and SB if I cared to

If I could Sync my iPad(Papa on my Sirius) with the TV version I'd do that..

Dont know where youll be but in rome and florence there is a huge american section for colleges like st johns who have campuses there. Tons of American bars. Guarantee some stay open for football season.

The main source to wathing the Nfl is Gamepass. You can also order one week at a time. That would be my suggestion. I have the Season plus program, with that I can watch all games live or on demand. Google Nfl gamepass :-)

Thanks for the tips everyone. Koldegaard - that sounds like maybe the best option. Do you know if they def show the national night games on the gamepass? Being on NBC primetime might change things..

Coincidence, I also will be in Italy at that time and am not happy about missing that game. I'll try my best to see it.

I was in Italy on my honeymoon when we opened the season against Dallas in 2007. Was watching on my slingbox in the middle of the night. New wife wasn't happy. Either was I since we lost. Little did I know we would go on to win the super bowl.

No matter what network is broadcasting it. "sometimes" we can get the home team (Bob Poppa) Audio over the other teams announcers...

You'll be good to go with Gamepass for sure. I've been in Europe for years & have been using it since day~1. (NHL & MLB as well)

That's wonderful news. And gamepass isn't just audio right? There's video and it's fully licensed and all that?

and they don't give much information or its unclear. They say "On Desktop, Coming Soon to Connected TVs, Tablets, and Smartphones"

This appears to mean its not available on tablets now. That sucks, I'll be traveling with my tablet.
It also says "Full replays of every game from 2009-present in high definition", but doesn't say how soon a game is available for replay. I could watch the game the following morning in Italy if its available then.

I've been doing some research (chat with customer service on NFL website). Gamepass is basically sunday ticket for those living outside the USA. You can watch live games as well as the replay features it comes with. Prices vary per country (between $150 and $269!) and apparently there are no week-to-week subscriptions. There is, however, a 7 day free trial. Only problem is the free trial expires 7 days after you start your account, not 7 days into the new season (bc you get access to archived games, etc). The guy said its possible the NFL pulls the free trial offer (which you can only sign up for while you are out of the USA) as it gets to within a week of the season. My guess is they do because they hate money and wouldn't give a week of free NFL games because F their fanbase this is the NFL.

Just reporting what I know, might have to find alternative ideas if they pull that trial offer.

that should say LOVE money. Like really really really love it.

They sell radios that have a delay of either 15 20 or 30 seconds. It's meant for that exact reason. I'm really rhinking about purchasing one. I saw them advertised on Amazon
