If you are on the ground and skidding, aft cyclic will probably chop your tail off - which won't matter in this case, because your tail rotor is stuck. It might also lift you off the ground again and make you hit in a tail-low attitude and smack the fuselage back onto the ground. Not a desirable outcome.

Forward cyclic might tip you up on your nose. Leave it flat, use throttle and lever.
