Watching Film.

I believe they have higher view points whenever possible to present a whole play view and then I think they are able to take the lower angle shots and crop them down and isolate matchups for watching technique and such. Plus they utilize digital playback systems that allow them to move seamlessly back and forth through games and plays.

I'm pretty sure they have their cameras setup near the coaches' booth-- at least that's how it's setup at the Ravens' stadium. I'm assuming they have cameras at different locations throughout the stadium. I believe they use NFL Films crews to do all the filming.

They pretty much get the same view a coach would get from the booth-- which allows them to see all the players on the field on any given play. I wish I could get a hold of those tapes! Apparently, only a very select few outside the NFL get to see them during the season. Ron Jaworski is one of them, from what I've heard.

Coaches sit at Press box level and the cammeras are at the top of the stadium on the 50 (Redskins Side) and the Endzone (Players entrances)

Yeah, I wasn't sure how it's setup at FedEx. The Ravens had a booth within the press level that was reserved for NFL Films, so I figured that's where their cameras were.

I'm pretty sure those films you see Jaws and Merrill Hoge break down are what the teams use.
