Peyton Manning, insanely competitive, chews out Julius Thomas

The stories of Peyton Manning's preparation for each and every game are legendary, and so too are the expectations he has for his receivers. It's no surprise, then, that even one of the NFL's leading scorers, Julius Thomas, might find himself on the business end of a Manning critique:

Sure, the Broncos were up by 11 at the time to a team that was having trouble locating the end zone (Kansas City had just gone 10 minutes with the ball and did not score at all), but you never know in the NFL when someone's going to jump up and throw a scare into you. Better it be your quarterback than the other team, right?
