Before everyone jumps on Boeing, unless some additional news breaks about a mechanical failure this is pilot error pure and simple. If you're landing 2/3rds down the runway, you should be initiating a go around well before the wheels hit the ground.
It may come out that there was a mechanical failure which prevented go-around, in which case I'll eat my words. If not, the pilots acted grossly irresponsibly.
