Hold the approach angle
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT) took approximately 7 minutes, covering a distance of 1 nautical mile. Departure roll commenced on runway 18L, with the aircraft clearing the runway threshold at 5,869 feet, utilizing 68% of the available runway length. Liftoff speed was achieved at 156 knots, as the aircraft began its ascent into the local weather conditions, characterized by a temperature of 92°F and a wind speed of 4 knots from 239°.
As the aircraft climbed from 1,670 feet above sea level to 38,001 feet, an increase of 36,331 feet in 22 minutes, it covered a distance of 147 nautical miles. The enroute climb phase concluded 1 mile southeast of KCLT, marking the beginning of the initial cruise phase. The aircraft then transitioned through several enroute level cruises, including a 29-minute segment covering 218 nautical miles, 4 miles south of Whitesburg, Kentucky. The descent phase commenced 4 miles southeast of Fort Recovery, Ohio, with the aircraft decreasing altitude from 37,796 feet to 11,870 feet in 21 minutes, covering 144 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 27R at Chicago O'Hare International Airport (KORD) was initiated from the east, with the aircraft descending from 11,754 feet to 2,445 feet in 7 minutes, covering 33 nautical miles. Landing on the 7,477-foot runway, the aircraft touched down 189 feet beyond the touchdown zone, with a touchdown speed of 133 knots and a rate of -215 feet per minute. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 feet from the centerline. Taxiing to the parking area from the runway took 15 minutes, covering a distance of 4 nautical miles. The total flight distance was 566 nautical miles, with a total flight time of 1 hour and 44 minutes, and a fuel consumption of 8,747 pounds.
The Boeing 737-800 touched down on runway 27R at KORD Chicago O'Hare International Airport with a score of 98.7%. The aircraft approached the runway from the east, heading 269.0° at 4 nm and 1,748 ft above ground level. The final approach quality was satisfactory, with a good threshold height. However, the threshold speed was slightly above the target at 142 kt, indicating a slight deviation from the optimal landing speed.
The touchdown point was 189 ft beyond the touchdown zone, and the touchdown speed of 133 kt was a little fast. The touchdown rate of -215 fpm was fair, but not ideal. The runway touchdown position was slightly misaligned by 10 ft from the centreline, which may have been due to the 11 kt crosswind and 4 kt headwind. The local weather conditions, with a temperature of 84 °F and wind at 12 kt from 199°, may have contributed to the slight deviations from the optimal landing parameters.
The total landing distance of 4,591 ft was 61% of the runway length, which is within the acceptable range. The runway rollout alignment was very good, indicating that the pilot maintained control of the aircraft during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the optimal parameters, but the pilot's skills and experience ensured a safe and controlled touchdown.
