How come I can't challenge a touchdown catch?

I go into the menu, but the challenge part is greyed out after a touchdown play. Is there anyway to do this?

I challenged two last night. One was in the back of the endzone where the WR jumped up and came down on the line. If the call in challengable, you will have the option.

Ok thanks...guess that makes it a dead giveaway when you should challenge A TD...if it's not greyed out....

Maybe it was past the 2 minute warning, and other considerations that makes a play unchallengeable in the NFL.

Note that in Madden once you watch an instant replay, you lose the option to challenge.

The challenge system is Madden is horrible.

The worst is when you don't even have the option of praying/challenging, whe under two minutes are left.

Then it comes down to the refs opting to challenge the wrong calls, or not at all; and their ruling is almost always random.

It would be nice if the challenges could be disabled in options, until EA actually put some effort into creating a quality review system.
