VP. Morning.

Hope I haven’t contributed to confusion. Mr Boeing’s FCTM for 75/76 does indeed allow all three techniques (wing down, crap n kick, crab alone). I’m guessing your experience is 4 jet which is likely to be more problematic than my 2 jet. All that being said, our company teaching ( and my pref) both sim and ac is crab and straighten. If the ‘kick’ is a touch too early then maybe a little wing down to keep on the cl. There is also the ‘throw it on the rwy like a sack of spuds’ technique which has served me well on the grounds that 150T of Boeing at 150kts is a lot of inertia!

Finally for accuracy and clarity any aob applied for A/L is removed when ‘rollout’ engages at 5’radio, but i’m usually so pleased to have got that far that I don’t really notice that bit.
