I'd say that Lazor's big challenge is going to be getting defenders out of the box, so that the running game can get some success.  All he can do is take a hard look at the talent that he has available, look at what they can execute well, and translate that into a plan of attack on the next defense they face.  

It's not a position that I envy, with Lazor.  I'm not expecting any sort of miracles to happen overnight.  I'm just hoping that he can sort out some of the problems, and enable the offense to sustain some drives.  Eventually, that will result in some scoring.

Well said.  Hopefully, the move will pay dividends, but Lazor is coming into a tough situation trying to install can new offense in mid season.  Interesting that the offense was thought to be too complicated, because there is a lot of young talent on the offense.  A simpler scheme will hopefully let the youngsters just play. There have seemed to be times where receivers just didn't make it to the right place, and it's hard to make those timing throws when everyone isn't on the same page. In hurry up mode, the offense actually looked pretty decent.
