Spin or No Spin
#16
If he played for a bigger market, he would be first ballot, no doubt.

That said, he's still a HoFer. Maybe just 2nd or 3rd ballot. As it stands, he'll finish with 100+ sacks as a DT, making him have the 3rd or 4th highest sacks for a DT all-time. He also is a 6x Pro-Bowler, 3x All-Pro (1st and 2nd). When his career is finished, he'll probably be at least around the 10x and 5x marks.

Atkins is the only person I am confident about being the 2nd HoFer for the Bengals (assuming they don't wake the F up and finally bring in Kenny Anderson and Ken Riley).

From the quote of the OP, I do have to say that the thinking that "we don't need pass rush from him, we have this guy" is freaking HORRIBLE. In today's NFL, you need everyone to give you some pass rushing. Otherwise you end up with like Sims and Billings on the field at the same time, and the QB having 8 seconds to throw.
