Survivor: Nicaragua?s Jimmy J: ?It might have been naive on my part to think I could have played under the radar?

As one of this season's oldest contestants, legendary NFL coach Jimmy Johnson, 67, thought himself to be no threat in the game of Survivor. However, with his celebrity came a target when, from the get-go, his teammates believed his leadership skills on football field would translate to the game and, in the end, ultimately work to his advantage.

After losing another tossing-based challenge to the younger La Flor tribe, it was Jimmy?s Espada tribe that faced another Tribal Council, where they would lose a second tribe member. Following the challenge, it was Marty Piombo who would orchestrate the tribe's voting order and convince almost everyone that removing Jimmy, whom he believed was the weakest player, would be the most beneficial move.

?I accomplished what I wanted to do and that was to have a great adventure,? Jimmy tells In Touch. ?I thought I had convinced everyone that I wasn?t a threat and that they shouldn?t have to worry about me. It might have been naive on my part to think I could have played under the radar and enjoy the adventure."

Jimmy admits he?s not bitter about his tribe?s decision and wishes they hadn?t made it, but he's still eager for one of his tribe-mates to win the $1 million prize. ?I?d love see anyone in my tribe win the million bucks, but with the tribe carrying Daniel, it?s going to be tough.?
