Toronto Argonauts Taking Defensive Coordinator By Committee Approach In 2024

Committees don't work because they can't be sympatico all of the time. Worse, with 3 of them, you could get a situation where 1 is frequently overruled by the other two which creates a division.
The buck has to stop somewhere. There needs to be 1 executive who makes that call.

In a sport as hierarchical as football where leadership and command is ingrained since childhood, they must know this.

It seems they weren’t sold on either Fields or Eiben as the DC.
This is a rather strange strategy especially considering a good chunk of the 2024 D will be new to the Argonauts.
I wouldn’t be shocked if another defensive coach is added.
Your points are quite valid, there needs to be a “point man” who ultimately is responsible for in game play calling and adjustments.
If things stay as they are I’m not convinced it will be successful.
