Totally agree.

His foot crossed over as he moved it to jump out of the way but he definitely should not have been standing there in the first place.

Going forward: Heavy fine. It won't be a suspension. And I actually like the guy. I've always like Tomlin. If I had to hand pick any coach in the league, he'd be my guy. That said, it was intentional. Penalty should have been called for sure. Fine if appropriate. Suspension? I don't think so. This does not in anyway change my admiration for him as a head coach. I wish he were ours.
Prickly Pete Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 (edited) So there are people here that don't think it was intentional? It's always fun to be a contrarian, I guess. Anybody lose money on the game? Fantasy team lose? Edited November 29, 2013 by Marauder'sMicro

T master Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 #12 should have slowed intentionally & let Tomlin's guy tackle him out of bounds taking Tomlin out with them IF he in fact did do this intentionally to send him a message that 2 can play his game !! Of corse that could have caused a bad injury to Tomlin which i would not hope for but i think it is just wrong to pull something like that & at the very least he should have been flagged for being on the field !!
Doc Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 I'm glad the Steelers won. Jones probably still wouldn't have scored. Tomlin deserves a nice fine.

Orton's Arm Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 I can't believe some of the people here! Next thing you know, some of you will be saying that even this is against the rules!

But that is the real world. They showed him after the play, knowing he got away with it, smirking like a kid walking away from a candy jar with his pockets full. Edited November 29, 2013 by rockpile

Defender had the angle on him before he (minimally) changed direction. This is manufactured outrage What should have been called was the helmet to head that knocked the Steelers RBs helmet off at the goal line. I am not outraged, I just think he did it intentionally, and should have been flagged.

Though it's often a bent rule, 8 feet further than he should be is pretty close to accurate 6 feet wide, and he was standing on it, with part of his foot touching the green of the field, so he was less then 6' from where he should have been standing considering his toes can go up to the white of the sideline. 8' would have had him standing well onto the field of play and actually may have been a better spot cause the ravens player could have ran by him without going out of bounds and the steelers defender would have run into Tomlin because of the angle he was on. Seems to be alot of Pittsburgh Hatred on this one with talks of how the team should be punished by awarding them a TD that they never would have scored on the play, tossing Tomlin from the game, fining him, and suspending him.
