I am looking for different situations coaches feel are important to work on both Offensively, Defensively and Special Teams. I know this sounds vague, but I am thinking of things like working 2 min Offense against 2 min Defense. Or running your PAT team on the field and having to get it off in 10 seconds because you have no timeouts. I know the situations are endless but basically I am just looking to generate more ideas and things we should consider. Also, I am interested in how coaches apply it in practice. Do you have a situational period or do you integrate into team. Thanks

Near the end of practice run a live (or maybe just popping with no takedowns) two minute drill O and D with the coaches on the sidelines signaling in plays, except instead of charting where the offense goes start at your own 20 (or 15) and just move the ball up 10 yards every play. (For example, if you complete a 20 yard pass or fumble a handoff, regardless just move the ball up 10 yards.) Then at the end your PAT team must get on without the benefit of a timeout and line up and kick. You can play around with this with first and second teams going against each other and getting reps. This way you can practice the gamelike situations as well as the mechanics of getting the offensive plays and defensive calls in, etc
For other situations practice red zone, backed up, and others. Bill Walsh believed that you should almost never run a play without your team knowing what the situation is.
