Game Video
Moderator: Team Captains
Where do the CFL teams get the video of games that they watch? Obviously there is TV video but I heard an interview on the radio where they were discussing other video that the players watch. So where does THAT video come from? Is this something the CFL does and then shares among the teams or just how does that work?

Not sure how they get the game films to opponents in the modern age but the coaches version (I believe) is more from the end zone cameras that you see shown from time in games so they can see where every player is lined up on both sides of the ball. Someone else here might have better insights as to how it is done now but this bumps your thread. As noted they have a side line cam too.
This then gives coaches down and ball placement so if they are looking at an opponent they can spot tendencies when they know down and distance and where they are on the field. Also see if they are running routes the right way and how their timing is.
Then in practice the scout team will run the opponents plays and the coach gives give the down, distance and what yard line the ball is on.

Both teams get to have somebody in the coaches suite upstairs filming the game. It does lead to scandals however like the scandal with the patriots a few years back. The difference in the nfl is they can get pre and post snap shots of the defense so they can dynamically adjust to how opposing defenses show their defense pre and post snap.
Teams provide a sideline and end zone video for each home game and share it among themselves. The technology has changed over the years, making it easier to share. It's now done digitally through an Internet exchange within two hours of the end of each game.
