PJ2 quote - A loss of thrust at cruise power would result in some yaw but not an uncontrollable yaw and certainly good control over any roll
From the Southwest 1380 report where the engine failed climbing through FL320
FDR data showed that the airplane’s uncommanded roll to the left reached a maximum of 41.3° at 1103:44. The first officer, as the pilot flying, began to roll the airplane back to wings level; about 6 seconds later, the airplane’s left roll was 5.1°, at which point the roll attitude was generally back under the pilots’ control
In the following video a 777 Captain describes an engine failure in a 777, aircraft rolled to 45° and roll control was so difficult he very briefly considered taking the aircraft through the remaining 315° in a barrel roll, beginning at 5:45,


As SLF when it comes to jets the lesson I take away is that an engine failure may not be that benign.
