The last time this was brought up (a few weeks back), I think a third or a quarter of that differential related to offensive contributions. The rest was our defense getting us off the field on 3rd downs when we weren't in previous seasons.
I believe the defense being more fresh due to the offense possessing the ball has contributed to the 3rd down stops we've seen.
