Obviously after V1 the crew should continue even though debris took out an engine. What is the possibility that both engines failed due to FOD?
Highly unlikely. If due to a burst tire/tyre; debris would tend to be thrown aft rather than into the intake; worst case would on first glance seem to be one engine being lost which would not be cause to reject T/O once airborne. Hard to see a burst tire taking out both engines. That said, I wasn't there and will let the NTSB do their job on this one.
