Want a great potato soup recipe

I love potato soup and i usually keep mine pretty simple.

In a crock pot

Few peeled Irish potatos, half onion, salt n pepper, butter, add warm milk later.

I like to scoop out a cup or two before serving and whisk the rest for thicker soup then replace the bigger chucks of potatos. Simple and e-z, i like mine with a side of hog jowls.

I just made my own potato soup. Its not classic potato soup like you get in a restaurant but my family calls it soupy potatoes. You just cut potatoes into cubes and boil them until they are just to the point of being mushy. Like 25 minutes instead of 20. Add salt, galic powder and lots of butter to the pot while boiling. Then just spoon out the potatoes and add some of the water from the pot to make them soupy.

3lbs of potatoes of your choice

a "bunch" of leeks (usually a group of three or four)

a quart of half and half

a quart of broth (chicken or vegetable)

one package of country ham

Fresh Ground black pepper to taste

Peel potatoes and puree two to three potatoes in blender.

Dice the Ham (DO NOT RINSE) and slice up the leeks, sautee in pan until leeks start to tenderize.

Add broth, cream and non-pureed potatoes (diced to desired size).

Simmer for about 15 mins.

Stir in pureed potatoes

Simmer until potatoes are at desired tenderness..

IT's simple and it's my own recipe, the saltiness of the ham makes it so you don't have to add additional salt.

    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
    • Just to be clear: I'm not "downplaying" the talent around Bryce... I'm qualifying it. There's a big difference between saying, "we finally have building blocks that we're actually developing" and "we've done enough to say this is a finished product, NO EXCUSES!" It's possible to believe that the 2023 situation was bad and to believe that the current state, while improved, is still incomplete. That's not inconsistency; that's nuance. As for the footwork stuff, again, I've seen the same clips as others. The claim that Bryce is hopping to see over the line just isn't one I've seen corroborated by analysts or tape breakdown. "Both feet off of the ground to throw" happens a ton for QBs (ex: Mahomes, Rodgers, Purdy, etc.), especially when improvising. You're right that there were some encouraging flashes from Bryce last season, and it's nice to finally hear that after so much time was spent pretending otherwise. I'm not arguing that Bryce is elite, I'm just asking that we evaluate him using consistent, measurable criteria to determine his status as a top-10 QB... whether it's via 3rd down %, red zone efficiency, turnover-worthy plays, or yes, big-time throws (which, by the way, has been a valid part of QB evaluation across the league for years even if it wasn't used here during Kyle Allen or Teddy Bridgewater's years. For reference: Allen had 20 BTT at a 3.9% rate. Teddy had 17 BTT at 3.3%). Like you, I'm hoping to see a competent, entertaining offense this season. That's a baseline we can all root for, even if we don't have the same baseline for what makes a QB top-10 (which, to be fair, is what this conversation has been about... though I respect the attempt to reframe it).
    • I am optimistic that we might be on the verge of fielding a sustainable offense finally. The Bryce stats listed above are definitely encouraging. I don’t want to overly inflate this and disregard the previous 1 and a half seasons of production from Bryce and “cherry pick” stats but do hope the benching turns into an inflection point in his trajectory.      Lots of excitement heading into this season.
