遅れる is a general word for being late or delayed. ずれ込む specifically implies a schedule shift where something starts or finishes later than planned, often with a sense of things being pushed back.
延のびる
延びる means to be extended or prolonged. ずれ込む emphasizes the resulting delay or shift in timing, not just the extension itself.
