It's a simulation game, and the point of simulations is to create believable scenarios in the game. Since replays were a part of the NFL, the Madden series began including them in the series. Should OOTP decide to omit challenges and replays from the game it would be somewhat of a glaring omission from the game. Also, as you are a Madden player you know that there are instances in which the game does get the call incorrect and you need to utilize your challenges to get a call overturned.
