Well, to me that changes EVERYTHING I said before.
4 yards into the endzone is different than 2 yards BEYOND the back of the EZ. In this case, with you being way out of position to make this call, I'd be A LOT more reluctant to insist on (or flag after the fact) a PF for that tackle. For one, distance and timing are hard to judge, and it may very well be that it was not as late a hit as you thought. In the OP, 2 yards behind the back of the EZ can much more easily be flagged from 30-50 yards away than your correction.
