Whenever there is a daily challenge that requires strength, height, or speed, Zach is the guy for Team USA. He carries the hardest burdens and gives Team USA the boost they need to beat the UK team. If you switch Zach onto Team UK, there’s a definite chance they win more challenges. Despite Zach having his foibles as an individual competitor or as a partner, he is an excellent team member. Having Zach on your team is like having an elite goalie. He gives your team the edge and makes up for the team’s weaknesses.

9 Idris is getting used

Idris seems like a cool guy. He has made smart moves since the first elimination by joining the larger alliance, thus saving from automatically going into due to his rookie status. However, his team talks about him as though Idris is a lay-up competitor, and then when they need his vote, they expect him to give in. Which he has! Idris is between a rock and a hard place where shaking the boat could result in him getting put into elimination. Continuing down his current path will only result in him getting cut off when the team needs him no more.

Ironically, Kyle could have made a play for Idris’s vote, had he not suggested Idris for elimination.

8 Is CT playing a bad game?

Does anyone else find it weird how much trust CT has in Rogan? CT knows Georgia, Theo, and Jenny are three of his team’s best players aside from himself, yet he continues to side with the alliance of weaker players.

If there was any week to flip the numbers, it should have been this one. I understand he does not trust Kyle, but at the very least, he could have thrown Rogan in to see whether he is worth saving over and over again. CT has put all his eggs in the Rogan basket.
