I doubt they lose picks. In typical fashion, the NFL will wait for this to blow over.
It's difficult to know what Tolin's intentions were that night.
All I can say is that IMO, he looked down and made an INTENTIONAL slide step to the very edge of the field and willfully stood in the "no-standing zone" IN FRONT of the play. That much is obvious and he was fined accordingly.
The other thing that I haven't seen addressed enough in the media is that he stood on the playing field, even before that jump step showing him on the field. That is a serious safety hazard to Jacoby Jones and the other players, and yet Tomlin never apologizes to them, at least from what I saw of his comments.
No fool would stand that close to the playing field, and very close to it, with your back turned to a freight train of players coming your way. To me it defies logic regarding your own safety. IMO, he had a brain fart with wanting to change the outcoming of a play in some fashion. That may be a misinterpretation, but that's my gut call.
