In real science you would not look at one hypothesis but multiple and one of them would be that that the ruler was off. You would not just assume it was correct or you would be a bad scientist.
Same thing here. Not saying that the decay rate of proteins and soft issue etc would in fact not be found to be consistent with 60+ million years (although its getting very common place to be explained easily) but you do that by actually researching the deterioration rates using test not assumptions even from radiometric dating.
Thats how new discoveries are made and how real science is done. keep learning. You just might understand what makes science science one day.
