Amidst the multitude of struggles that have defined the 2011 Philadelphia Eagles, the ineptitude at the safety position has emerged as a serious challenger to the linebacker corps for the honor of the biggest weakness on this team. During the Andy Reid tenure, the linebacker corps has been an annual revolving door of incompetent player after incompetent player.  After 13 years...
