Considering the plane was equipped with an antiskid system it boils down to:

1) Failure of the anti-skid system.

2) Assymetrical thrust (in either forward or reverse thrust mode) or

3) Pilot error i.e. failure to properly employ the anti-skid system or thrust reversers or improper position of the thrust levers.

Weather is a factor, although all planes made it without incident nationwide, for weeks of winter weather.

Another choice would be to get a good RCR reading and then land on speed at a proper touchdown point.

“2) Assymetrical thrust (in either forward or reverse thrust mode) or “

That sounds painful.
