The dome patrol linebackers played their final seasons at ages 32, 34, 37, and 38, Vilma at 31, and cam jordan greatly declined at 34, but because Demario Davis had a great season at age 35 it means he won’t decline at 36.
If I'm not mistaken the Dome Patrol roamed the field back in the late 80's and early 90's, so let's say 30 years ago to be conservative. Players, and their organizations, have far greater means of taking care of their bodies than they did back then. Too many fans are still using that era as a baseline for comparison in several aspects. Back then player's careers were over when their bodies could no longer hold out. Today players commonly choose to retire while they are still healthy to pursue other interests.
