Jetsfan80 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000290187/article/mike-tomlin-incident-might-cost-steelers-a-draft-pick Mike Tomlin incident might cost Steelers a draft pick 180 By Kevin Patra Around the League writer Published: Dec. 1, 2013 at 10:35 a.m. Updated: Dec. 1, 2013 at 12:32 p.m. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Sunday on NFL Network's "NFL GameDay Morning" that Tomlin and the Steelers each face a fine, as well as the possible loss of a draft pick for the sideline incident, according to league sources. Tomlin was recently added to the competition committee, and the league will take that into consideration when it decides how hard to come down on the Steelers, according to Rapoport. The NFL has not reviewed the entire tape, which likely will be done Monday. The league no doubt understands that the play would have been a much bigger issue if the Steelers won the game. It's difficult to determine Tomlin's intent, but the NFL might decide to make an example of the Steelers in an effort to underscore to other coaches that they better be aware of where they stand during games.

JollyGreenGiant Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Good, it was kind of whatever until they showed the replay with him smirking and looking guilty as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeWillie Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I'll be shocked if they lose a draft pick... Jets didn't with Sal incident, so precedence has been set. I don't think he'll get a suspension either. He'll get a hefty fine for sure, but I believe that will be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I'm surprised no one had brought up the fact that a Jets coach was flagged just last week for unsportsmanlike conduct for interfering with the refs ability to move freely down the field while in the white paint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
