Loss of Thrust on Both Engines - 737ng Checklist

Hi everyone,

Why there is no mention to close the thrust levers during this procedure? Is it considered obvious that you have to close it, or they just forgot to mention at the checklist? If you don't close them and the engines light up at different times, you will have a great yaw movement and need to compensate. No big deal, but the checklist mention that if one or both engines light up, you should advance the thrust lever slowly...
In a simulator lesson, the pilots didn't close the levers and had to correct the yaw later.
