The running game, defense, and special teams got better from 2010 to 2011.

Andy accounted for 8 fewer turnovers 
Andy had 3 more game-winning drives and 4th qtr comebacks
Andy had a 101.5 passer rating in the red zone with 0 int's, compared to Carson's 80.5 with 3 int's
Andy was better on 3rd downs (84.4 rating with 2 int's) than Carson (72.6 rating with 7 int's)

So basically Andy turned the ball over less and was much better in scoring situations and 3rd downs (kept drives going).

Imo, the defense was probably the #1 reason for the turnaround, followed by better QB play. Our run game and ST were only marginally better. I honestly don't see how you'd believe the passing game got worse from '10 to '11, unless you're just looking at bulk yards and TD's, while ignoring INT's (what seems familiar about that?)
