How can some teams turn around their OL in a year or two and the OL has been an issue since Zimmer got here.
Coaching matters. Zimmer's had a revolving door at OC and OL coach, and the OL coaching has been suspect imo. And it's pretty clear he doesn't value it like he does defense. For a head guy he is way too focused on one side of the ball. Head guy has to make every part of the team matter 100% and be on top of all of it, not just blabbing like he did a few weeks back about "Ask the offensive guys around the league, they'll say I've still got it". That's a DC quote, not a HC quote.
It was also part of his history of failing to get h.c. jobs before he finally landed this one. He would show for interviews with no prep on who he'd hire as staff. It appears that philosophy never changed.
