People are talking about him returning to 100%, but I can't believe that there's not more excitement about the quote that I quoted in my opening post:

Quote:Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle Geno Atkins tore his ACL on Halloween night in 2013. Rather than training and improving, Atkins was forced to rehabilitate throughout the ensuing offseason.

Think about that: an entire offseason or just rehabilitation and not working on his technique and what makes him great.

That's like taking an entire year off of playing golf, building things, doing complicated building work where you have to be precise, etc., and just being thrown into the fire and are expected to have no drop-off.

The more I think about this and the more I see it, the more that I think that our defense an really be a dominant squad.
