You're not 'resting' during a deload. You're usually lifting the same weight, you've just castrated the volume of your workout.

I don't think atrophy would be a problem during the deload since you're still lifting, and I don't think its a problem when we're talking about a couple weeks.

The OP was very vague. He may be displaying a decrease in performance for those lifts and if that's the case atrophy won't even matter since he's lost ability from the actual lifting.
