I think there was a hint of sarcasm when he said that he was the biggest threat in challenges; either he was being sarcastic or he's just trying to raise his self-esteem, of which he doesn't have much. If you watch the secret scenes with him, he's very aware of himself, how measly he is, and how he admired Malcolm. It was actually how much he admired Malcolm (because of how good he is) that made him just want to send him home.

Plus, I can't see how anyone can think that Erik is actually good at the game. He doesn't do anything, and he barely talks any strategy. He needlessly threw a vote for Phillip out there, which was completely unnecessary and which emphasized how much of a loose cannon he is.
