Time to get younger? Ravens face pressing, age-old decisions

The Baltimore Ravens' starters were the oldest in the NFL in 2016, and the team failed to make the playoffs for the second straight season.

Now is the time to get younger, right? Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti doesn't exactly follow that thinking.

"I don’t see age; I see accomplishments," he said.

Still, one has to wonder whether the Ravens' age is an issue when comparing them to the most accomplished teams this season.

Looking at the teams that played in this weekend's divisional round, here are the number of players older than 30 who started 10 or more games for them in 2016: the Seahawks (five), Texans (five), Cowboys (four), Falcons (four), Patriots (four), Steelers (three), Packers (three) and Chiefs (two).
