Football is so unique in that the way it’s presented makes it almost impossible to understand what’s going on. There are a million rules, which even die-hard fans don’t understand. And the broadcast doesn’t even make an attempt to explain or even show the offensive or defensive formations and plays being chosen.

It feels like what we’re shown on tv is a very narrow slice of what’s going on. We see the ball moving down the field but have no idea what the coach or quarterback is doing. Somehow it’s still an incredible watch though.

The plays belong to the individual teams, which is, I heard, why they don't broadcast full field views.

No idea if it's true or not

There are some recent experiments with consumer-facing full field: (Prime Vision All-22). They were held closely for a long time, though.
