How about outboard speed brakes/ground spoilers having a downward component (while touchdown with a high noseup attitude). Can vary ofcourse depending upon sweep angle and how farther the spoilers are located from the fuselage.
The gentleman about the reverser is absolutely right as well although its effect comes later than the speed brakes due to the time it takes to deploy compared to spoilers.
