If you look at the nacelles it is clear this wasn't just an oil leak. They are torn on the bottom. Those pods 100% scratched the tarmac. At a nose high attitude.
surprising it didn’t liberate the cowls. The latches are right in the impact zone and the cowls are carbon composite... more likely to be a brief high (ish) descent rate than dragging along for hundreds of feet settling...
