Then you also should look at how the PFF grades dropped like a stone when Pollack left.

Because anything that only happened once is inherently untrustworthy in the NFL. Doubly so in the run game. Otherwise Jeremy Hill and Peyton Hillis would be HoFers. 

Yeah, the PFF grades dropped like a stone because the two best OL on the team left that season. Corey Glenn for all his attitude/motivation problems was at least a starting quality LT. In 2019 he was replaced by 32-year-old Andre Smith being a LT for the first time. Also Clint Boling retired and was replaced by Michael Jordan.

Cordy Glenn > Andre Smith
Clint Boling > Michael Jordan

Of course they dropped like a stone the next year, they didn't have a single starting caliber player on that OL in 2019. Their best player was probably John Miller.

(They were also running Zac Taylor's "scheme".)

Don't get me wrong, I will take him over Turner every day. I just don't see the hype.
