Some offensive statistics from last year compared to this year

I read a ton of threads saying this year's average starting position was way higher than last year and I start thinking to myself...Patrick Peterson returned just about every kickoff to at least the 35 yard line. I spent about an hour last night looking up all the numbers from the first 5 games of each season and then putting an average out. Here is what I have found..take them however you want to take them.
2010
---------
36 yard line
2.6 turnovers per game
326 ypg
131 pass ypg
195 rush ypg
30:20 time of possession
24.4 PPG
12 point margin of victory
2011
--------
30 yard line
0.6 turnovers per game
349 ypg
177 pass ypg
172 rush ypg
33:55 time of possession
37.4 PPG
25.2 point margin of victory
For Whoever asked. 3 and Out's are actually up by .4 this season.

.6 to 2.6 is the biggest.
How many times did we drive the ball last year only to have JJ throw a pick in the red zone or just outside of it?

QB play is up, return game with pp7 is probably better, Ridley was amazing, but so is ware/ford. Passing will at least keep the defenses honest. I love this years team

Points per game?
That plus margin of victory makes a huge difference in the type of offense a team runs.

Stats arent everything.
The only way to quantify success is by wins and we are perfect in the department against tough competition

first 5 games of each season
Regardless, the team is looking good so far.

I did my own analysis yesterday comparing the two offenses, and what I discovered is there isn't much difference between the two except: turnover margin and scoring.
This year's team gets it in the end zone a far greater percentage of the time compared to last year. We settled for FGs far too often in 2010.

Key - I thought it would be higher. But whatever.
