As said above fly the a/c as you flair kick off the drift just before main gear contact/just after if you miss it as the the 737 is built to land with a crab if needed, think auto land in cross wind. As you straighten out the drift you will have to apply aileron in the opposite, upwind direction to keep the wings level. This position is exactly what you want on the roll out as well. As much of each as ness. no restrictions like on take off spoilers should be extended any way.

Congrats on realising the flight isn't over as the main wheels touch as this is a symptom that can occur and some people believe it or not think there days work is over let the nose wheel crash down and relax waiting for the capt. to say i have control. (providing your ops say they are pf on the ground ie. the one with the tiler)
