A very instructive sim exercise I remember involved low speed engine failure. Particularly with a slippery runway the lack of rudder effectiveness could make it tricky. But my company had at least one example of someone experienced pressing TOGA while still turning to line up and ending up on the grass. Some of our 737s also had a noticeable lag on one engine in the early spool up. It is a bit like ground looping a taildragger. You can't imagine it happening but once you get beyond a certain point you are just along for the ride. This one has either sunk in a long way or done some serious damage to the gear.
