All options are on the table for Tomlin discipline

The Sunday pregame shows featured plenty of discussion and reports and speculation about the discipline to be imposed on the Steelers and/or coach Mike Tomlin for Tomlin’s turkey leg dance on Thanksgiving night.

Soon, the void will be filled by facts.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the review of Tomlin’s “lost placement” that placed him on the white stripe with a foot on the field in the path of Ravens receiver Jacoby Jones commences Monday morning at 345 Park Avenue. As we reported on Thursday night, the decision initially falls under the jurisdiction of executive V.P. of football operations Ray Anderson.

The source says that all options are on the table. While the smart money remains on the payment of money (a lot of it) by the team and/or Tomlin, no decisions have been made.

“All the noise out there is speculation,” the source said.

Look for a decision by the middle of the week.

I just hope they don't take away a draft pick, while unlikely is still possible.

You silly man. You know very well they'll fine Tomlin, take away the draft pick, fine the Steelers for Spygate II, and eventually give the Patriots** our 1st and 2nd round picks. Upon which the Steelers will have to maintain the contracts.

I think a fine is an appropriate form of discipline for what happened. However, I think that a suspension or the Steelers losing a draft pick would be too much.

I'm sure Tomlin will put a smiley face in the O in his name on that check he is about to write.

Memo: The standard is the standard.
