hasn't that aspect been said already? It's still dumb.

You can only challenge the spot of a ball if it involves a first down

There was some wacky ass [censored] going on in this game involving reviews. First, how the hell do they do a booth review for 12 men on the field and reverse it when even Madden can circle all the guys and see its legit?? Also, how did they not review the final play? Seems like that should be a standard booth review, unless they don't allow the booth to review plays if a team doesn't have a challenge left, but I don't think that's the case.

I don't know the rule, but I think it would be resonable to make the rule be that if you challange the spot of the ball, you only win the challange if the ball is moved more than 2 yards, or if a first down call is changed. You don't want to have coaches challanging every time they think the spot is off by a few inches.

A coach only gets two challenges a game.
