Narrative:
During rollout on runway 8L, the first officer was going to take the second r-hand high speed exit. As he was saying that, he was giving it to me, the aircraft did not 'feel' like it was going to make the turn. I told him to 'keep on going!' out of fear that we would not make the turn. There appears to have been a moment where we were both negating each other's efforts as I came on the controls to stay on the runway and he was still turning. The aircraft swerved left onto the runway and then I was able to straighten it after losing some traction. The next turn-off was taken uneventfully. A PA was made. I can't say with certainty whether or not we would have made the high-speed turn, but the decision to continue down the runway precipitated the loss of traction and swerve back onto the runway.
