SF had the 13th ranked defense in 2010 (the year before JH got there) and averaged giving up 327 yards per game.
This year, they are 3rd in defense and give up 292 yards per game.
The difference is the upgrades in players and the fact that the offense is extending drives.
Their offense only averaged 313 yards and 19 points per game in 2010 and now average 366 yards and 24 points per game.
They are doing so with largely the same players.
