Community ManagerNot all plays are able to be challenged, like if it's under the 2 minute warning and a turnover on downs. If there's a specific play that didn't allow you to challenge can you record the clip and post it here so we can review it?
Instant replays are locked for online play. Replays can be seen at the end of the game under your highlights/game summary.
@EA_BlueberryI share similar frustration as @bcongero2. I'm a little over 50 games into my Madden online H2H season and I haven't encountered a single instance where a play could be challenged - but many that should have been.
Here's a video I made featuring a game against the Bengals where my opponent was gifted 56 yards of a 66 yard drive in the final 0:19 seconds of the 4th quarter on three plays:

Not only was I unable to challenge these, because they were within the last 2 minutes, but I had a more recent game where I should have had a pass play called back that my opponent couldn't challenge well within the time frame when challenges should be working. During those times the challenge button says "There is nothing to challenge on this play."
@bcongero2That said, RELAX! Tantrums work better when dealing with moms. There are very few moms here.
The man asked for a video so he could present your issue to people that could do something about it. Blowing up in a forum doesn't help. Threatening to never buy the product again also, does not help (they already have your money AND you still can't challenge on this game). So, since you are not the only person with this as an issue, I posted the videos for you.
Now give them some time to do their part - and you might see challenges working as expected. You can either wait to play more Madden until after the team address the challenge system, or play knowing that the challenge system does not work without freaking out.

Thanks for the clip! Completely felt the same way about the Mixon catch but those two AJ Green catches were unfortunate. Some real bad luck there, tough to watch that drive. I'll see what I can do to get this up the chain to get looked at. 👍
Have you gotten any feedback about the "Challenge Play" issue?
EA hasn't addressed a single problem with Madden since '15. It's getting real old. Can't believe I keep wasting my money on hot trash games from EA.

I get how after some games you can be frustrated and feel the need to vent it somewhere, but that type of feedback doesn't really give us any information on what we should relay back to the dev team on what they should address, nor does it really promote any healthy discussions here.
The Community Managers here are responsible for letting the Madden team know what issues are affecting players in which they should prioritize to address and what features of the game they should look into adding/tweak/remove. If there's something particular since Madden 15 you want addressed please let us know by creating a topic for discussion so we can gather some sentiment around it. 👍- @EA_Blueberry You said that better than ever could have...
