Message to the NFL: PULL YOUR CAMERAS BACK!

Basically, every NFL broadcast appears to have been designed for an era in which folks watched games on 19 inch television screens. They continuously zoom in on the QB and offensive line, leaving us in the dark as to what is going on with the other 12 or so players.

Well, times have changed. The average television size has to be 30-35 inches by now, and with HD broadcasts, picture quality is less of a concern. Pull the camera back! I want to see what defensive backs and wide receivers are doing. I don't need a foot high Peyton Manning occupying the entirety of my glorious 65 inch Hi-Def screen.

Why do they do this? Are they intentionally trying to change the home viewing experience (by making it worse) to encourage folks to go to the game?
