So why the down face?
Because football is over and baseball hasn’t started yet.
And the hockey and basketball teams have to show us what they got in the playoffs before we invest every night in them like we do baseball and do every Sunday for football.
It is look at what is wrong and why it is wrong and the odds of each team making the playoffs and winning the championship.
The Sixers
A starting lineup of Jrue Holiday, Elton Brand, Andre Iguodala, Jode Meeks and Nikola Vecevic is not going to excite anyone.
But along with backups Evan Turner, Thaddeus Young, and Louis Williams, they show the depth that gained them a 20-9 record and first place in the Atlantic division.
They are winning without a superstar. Some will argue that it should be Iguodala, but he earned his All-Star credentials with good defense and a all-around game.
Rumors fly that the Sixers could land a Dwight Howard, but Turner and Williams are in most trade speculations.
Just see what the current group can do with its depths as a strength.
Playoffs possibility: 90 percent. Championship potential: 10 percent.
The Eagles
Is Michael Vick the starter to take you to the Super Bowl?
How about the Giants, who had one more win than the Eagles, yet established a strong defense.
And it was Eli Manning, not Tom Brady, led his team to a last-minute touchdown to take the lead and win the game.
Can’t worry about that.
Sure the Eagles paid too much for some players, especially Nnamdi Asomugha and Domimique Rodgers-Cromartie, but are they why the Eagles did not make the playoffs?
The Eagles have a lot of questions to be answered and it should start soon.
Owner Jeff Lurie stated that Andy Reid would stay on as coach, but left unsaid was that Reid would have one last year to get things right.
Playoff percentage: 50 percent. Super Bowl champs in 2013, coming in at 60 percent.

The Flyers

Is Ilya Bryzgalov the right goalie for this team?
It doesn’t matter.
If the Flyers make a run during the playoffs, either it will be Bryzgolov or backup Sergie Bobrovsky in goal.
The Flyers just need to get everyone healthy, which hopefully will be near the end of the season.
Their youth should stay strong during the playoffs. Whether the veterans can stay healthy and contribute, is the key to the season.
Playoff percentage: 95. Stanley Cup: 65.

The Phillies
World Series champ 2008.
Went the World Series in 2009 and were in the playoffs every year since.
Yet I see an aging team with its core past its time.
Out Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rolllins and Placido Polanco, who were is going to play a full season?
The Phillies have depth including Lanyce Nix and Ty Wiggington.
They have improved the bench and the backend of the bullpen with the addition of Jonathan Papelbon.
It is a question mark how the new parts are going to respond to the old.
However, it does seem that in spite of improving the closer’s position, the Phillies have concerned themselves with being better off replacing parts for the long haul better than they were in 2011.
It is going to be a fun ride.
Playoff possibilities: 98 percent. World Series victor: 79 percent.
2008 might be playing into my thinking, but the Phillies do present the best hope of winning a World championship.

Pro football is over and baseball has not started yet.
Also, the Flyers play better with Bob Bobrovsky in goal.
Scott Hartnell scored two first-period goals and the teams dragged a 2-2 tie going into the second period.
Claude Giroux and Brayden Schenn scored 1:14 apart in the second for a brief two-goal advantage, but Tyler Bozak’s goal at 18:09 pulled the game to 4-3 before the third period.
The Flyers look like they outplayed the Leafs, going after every puck and outshooting the Leafs, 39-27.
