Clicked through a bunch of teams on Nitrogen, didn't see any Chicago or GB picks. Not sure if they'd show or not. For transparency reasons, I'd hope they would. I know they do for TNF games later in the season.
After much clicking, I found one. User 5074238 in the 0.0001 BTC pool picked the Packers. Appears no one in the top 3 pools picked Packers or Bears. Always been a little uncertain about transparency in these Nitrogen pools. They could be much better run.

6 people took the Bears out of 981 in the pool I’m in.
If you are picking the same teams as everybody else, you aren’t going to win. The idea is to take other lesser picked teams, so that when that bloodbath happens, which happens every year, you can be sitting pretty.
So, taking the Jets now because in reality they don’t have much future value, BraveJayHawk gains leverage on the field in the weeks to come because he’s taken a shitbum team and saved the powerhouses for later.

The reason the Jets don't have much future value is that they may be a "shitbum" team (although they may be closer to mediocre). I wouldn't pick them this week, because their game is a toss-up and they have a stretch later in the season of:
I wish there was an API or some tool to extract everyone's picks on Nitrogen. Really wish they upgraded their software. It's been very lackluster for years and last year there was the big issue with early London game.
I am heavy on NYJ on Nitrogen. I am treating this like a re-buy pool. For pools that lock at 1PM I think best picks is DAL. Followed by Philly, and then SEA. I don't have any Philly though and likely will have some Seattle and MAYBE some DET. I have tiny sprinkles on Baltimore and 1 insignificant cost entry on Carolina.
