Both fouls were legitimate penalties, I agree, but to me these are personal fouls, not "illegal blocks in the back" since there is nothing to block and it's just an ill-advised shot to the back, usually away from the play and usually dangerous.

I had the same thing this year also. My U called a defensive lineman for a block in the back. I asked twice about who did what and then suggested to him that maybe we should call that a personal foul and he agreed.
