The hottest fire forges the strongest steel.

Being in the AFC North, with two games against pitt, Baltimore, and Cleveland, combined with games against the Raiders, Chargers, Chiefs, Vikings, and Packers....if they make they playoffs, they will have earned it.  No way a paper tiger. 

Say the Titans beat up on a lifeless AFC South and the Colts weren't getting hot, and their non-conference opponent was the NFC East.  Fine.  Call that a paper tiger.  Not these cats.
