Sounds like the engines were still running but didn't respond to TL command.
Agreed, but a simultaneous dual engine Loss Of Thrust Control (LOTC) is still quite worrisome - had it happened close to the ground it could easily have had an unhappy ending. Remember, a dual engine LOTC was the cause of the BA 38 777 crash at Heathrow - and had it not resulted in a crash, as soon as the fuel warmed up a bit the ice and faults would have cleared and left zero evidence.
