    Has anyone tried Game Pass (Yahoo?).

    How does it work? Is it worthwhile?

    Tricks? Warnings? Advice?

    Ill be "way over there" for the green bay game and id love to watch it on my lap top.

    You can also go to NFL.com and get an international game pass and watch it on the web, I believe it'll cost you $24 a game.

    There was a thread back on the 31st october called "going to Australia.....but i wanna see the jets" It's on page 10 at the moment.It had a few good idea's how to watch while your away.The best chance is to use "sling box" I think it's a NFL product that lets you watch on your PC or laptop anywhere in the world.

    Good Luck.:grin:

    I bought the NFL International Pass (Which is powered by Yahoo Sports) and I can say that it is well worth the money. It is currently available for $99 for the rest of the season. As long as you have a decent broadband connection (I have 10meg) There is no problems at all.

    The connection has never dropped, there is never any slow down, as per usual with all things net the game is slightly behind the stats on NFL.com so don't have that up when watching.

    You can also watch every game of the week for up to 24 hours after their completion.

    As far as picture quality goes, if you watch is small then it is as good as watching it on a TV, if you blow it up to full size it does get a bit blurry at times but this does not detract from getting to watch the Jets every week :)

    Any games that are being shown live on satellite TV are not available for live streaming though, so The Jets v Bears can't be watched, but if you have sky then its not an issue.

    In Summary buy it now. I will do it every year from now on.

    I just got back from Asia -- let me tell you NFL International Pass is just unbelievable. EVERY GAME was available. The quality was very good -- on a mediocre lap top. You can jump from game to game in seconds.

    I wish they had this available in the States. It was 20 dollars (99 for the season) but absolutely worth every penny.

    What he said.

    Fantastic coverage and not bad picture at all. The one thing I love is that I KNOW that I'm going to see EVERY game.
    Just wished this was around when I was 18.

    Why pay when you can get it for free, thanks to our friend totallygreen (i believe it's him streaming).

    For UK fans - the Jets-Bills game is apparently Sky's red button matchup this week. :)

    I've tried all those and whilst free is good the picture quality isn't.
