filmed so close

Back with another rookie question:
Why is it that football games are filmed so closed up?
I find it very frustrating not to be able to see anything of what's going on between the receivers and the secondary. Most of the time we only see the QB behind his O-line, and sometimes he throws, sometimes he doesn't, sometimes the receiver catches the ball, sometimes not... but you never know why! Because you didn't see anything!
I know they are trying to show impressive images but they could do that during the replays...

Long story short, does somebody know a good reason for that way of filming football?
