I wonder if those two tugs, had they stayed, could have manuvered the ship away from the bridge support.
A mass that big, with no help?
Honestly would depend on when and where they knew that was what had to be done. They could run their engines in red and barely shift it without any help from the ship. And it's a BIG ship so even if they were able to shift the bow clear the stern or the side may have smashed into the bridge.
It was just a case of the exact worst things going wrong in the worst place.
Once those foul stars aligned it was inevitable

Tugs are all engine and gas tank. If they were already alongside they would have likely been able to save the ship.
