I think so. It looked like something was off as soon as it shutdown one of the engines. The video feed I usually watch runs a procedure timeline on the screen ticking off milestones. Today was the first time they checked off "Landing." Then they listed "Safe Vehicle. Then came back and inserted "Or Not." Then "rapid oxidation of unused propellant."
