Do you have any idea what an anomaly is? Here is Webster's definition: "something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected." Flacco's Super Bowl run fits that definition, hence why I factored it out.

Here let's take out his best and worst of the postseason: his 2012 playoff run and his first two seasons in the NFL.

6 games 

13 TDs 4 INTs

238 YPGs 61%

Still pretty good I'd say against the Steelers and Patriots 4/6 games.

Trade you Ricardo Louis and Rashard Higgins for Wallace and Maclin. Even Watson for Devalve. Throw in Collins for Crowell. Oh, and you can just have Hue.

Flacco doesn't have the GSOT but I'm not sure all of his failures are because of that.

I will without doubt swap everyone on offense with the Browns if we get Hue at OC. Not even a second thought.

Since 2010 the Ravens have made the playoffs 4 times (2010, 2011, 2012, and 2014). I don't think it's cherry picking to mention his playoff stats since 2010. Cherry picking, in the truest sense of the word, would be picking and choosing years which he had good performances and aggregating them. It's not an anomaly if Flacco's just been good in the playoffs ever since 2010, is it? In fact, one could argue that it probably just means he got better as the years went on. 

I mean, how can you look at this bulk data and conclude that 4 consecutive post season appearance statistics, all aggregated, is "cherry picking" and "an anomaly"?

10 games in a row of stellar play is not an anomaly. You factored it out because you didn't like what the numbers said. It was clear cherrypicking.
