Making Progress, Part Two

I mentioned a while back that the Hawks were on the cusp of becoming a top 10 defense. Well, they finished #9 in yards against and #7 in points. A HUGE improvement over the last few years.
Here's how this team stacked up:

League Ranking In:
Yards Points Turnovers
2011 9 7 5
2010 27 25 28
2009 24 25 26
2008 30 25 25

You could argue that these numbers are all because of an improved defense, but that is not entirely the case. The defense was on the field less in 2011, and the offense turned the ball over less than in previous years.

Aways
2011 28:18 23
2010 27:18 31
2009 27:30 31
2008 26:37 27
