Has anyone seen a CPU coache's call for a play to be reviewed where the call on the field actually goes unchanged??? As of today, every CPU challenge that I have witnessed has been overturned!!!!! I have played about 30-40 games thus far with the CPU calling for maybe 10-20 challenges during that span. The CPU coach can't possibly be that good in throwing the red flag every time, especially from his vantage point.

What have you seen ??

I have 1ce....but think about it, how many times do you challenge and get it wrong. Ive probly got about 90-95% of my challenges upheld, so i guess its not bad. PLus its not like they always get the big plays reversed, most times its just a first down case.

As a matter of fact, I had the cpu coach challenge a fumble ( claiming his reciver never caught it ) and they were wrong, and just a little while ago, I caught a td pass and clearly stepped out of bounds but I hurried and kicked the xp and for the first time they did not challenge the play.

I think the challange system is very well done.

i was kinda disappointed with the challengs at first, because the CPU ALWAYS got them right. Then i saw a few that the CPU were wrong about and changed my opinion =)

I have yet to see a CPU challenge that works out in my favor. It seems like you can always tell that the refs have spotted the ball wrong and a challenge is coming.

I was playing my franchise last night as the Saints against the Falcons and they ran Duckett up the middle on 3rd and 2 and I clearly gang tackled him about a foot from the first down line. Well, Dan Reeves challenged it and it was overturned. However, it must not have been moved but about an inch because the play still resulted in a 4th down.

I've just yet to see a computer challenge that I know is not going to be changed somehow.

I play as the saints too and they ran up the middle and they got the first down. I challenged it and they changed it. I don't see anything wrong with the challenge system except that peter is always right when he predicts if the ruling on the field gets overturned or not.

In my last game against the Vikings, they challenged the spot of the ball on a very important 3rd down. They were marked a few inches short and the call on the field was upheld against the CPU's challenge. It was very neat because I wasn't sure what they were going to call because the replay looked inconclusive.

I had a couple times where they challenged and were wrong, mainly on first down calls.
