I thought the 737 went in nose first?
That's almost minor damage to the smaller aircraft. Something vital, like control cables, must have been damaged on the 73.

Could be lots of easy things, or stuff we haven't yet imagined. What is for sure, is that no aircraft ever built, was designed to deal with an impact resulting from a ~1,000 mph closure rate. Assuming the FDR survived, they should have a few gazillion datapoints to work from. The -800 series has a formidable set of datasources feeding the box.
