Performance ranks are a quick visual measure of the contestant's season vs. historical data from all prior contestants, in three basic (scorable) categories:

1. Performance in individual challenges (MPF), as a measure of "physical game";

2. Ability to vote people out consistently (VFB%, or VFB/TCA), or "strategic game"; and

3. Ability to avoid being voted against (rVAP, or TCA-VAP) - which scales better than a percentage would - for "social/strategic game."

Brad Culpepper - Bios

From his (and Monica's) pre-game interview with EW's Dalton Ross:

"Monica may have been eliminated early on Survivor: One World, but she feels her husband (a current attorney and former NFL player) gives her the edge this time around. 'I have to win,' she says, 'and I brought my shield, my armor, my guy to help me get to the point I need to be.' And Brad feels he has an advantage dealing with the elements after surviving the brutality of NFL training camps. 'The hotter the better,' says Brad. 'I'm hoping that it rains every day. I'm hoping it's 100 percent humidity, I'm hoping that it's 100 degrees.'"


From his (and Monica's) official CBS bio page: (8/21/13)

"Occupation: Attorney and retired NFL player. Played for the Minnesota Vikings, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Chicago Bears.

Personal Claim to Fame: My 21 year marriage.

Inspiration in Life: Monica, because she is selfless in her drive to improve our family.

Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: The outdoorsy types like Ozzy, Colby and the first time Skupin played.

Reason for Being on SurvivorRedeem my wife for being blindsided by Colton.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole Survivor: I grew up in a stilt house on Dog Island in the Gulf of Mexico, spent 18 years in various locker rooms dealing with all kinds, and have devoted my last 12 years as a trial attorney, persuading people to understand my clients’ positions.

What Does It Mean to You to Play Survivor with Your Loved One? Monica means more to me than anyone in this world. While this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, I will always place her before me as I would never want to jeopardize her Survivor flame."

Excerpts from his official CBS Game Changers bio page:

"How have you changed since the last time you played? I’m one year older.

What skills do you bring to Survivor that will make you a useful member of the group and what skills have you been learning since you last played?  I’m a worker. Self-awareness, to a degree.

What are you most proud of from the last time? Set up some blindsides that helped [my wife] Monica get to the end."
