Boeing don't recommend aerodynamic braking, they say get the nose wheel down ASAP. Having done all the tests on the various types Boeing concluded that there was little to no advantage to holding the nose wheel off. Personally have done a complete 737 conversion at Boeing and 757/767 and 744 with Boeing instructors, they all say the same.
