A Chance For New Beginnings! | 2009 Bengals Hard Knocks Episode 1 

"And no Bengal has more at stake than head coach Marvin Lewis" Lmao oh yeah he's feeling the pressure I bet, only had 9 more seasons after this one

R.I.P Cedric Benson and Chris Henry

“I’m pissed off to the highest of pisstivity”- Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, 2009.

Woke the guy up at 5:30 in the morning to cut him and give him all this information on how to get tf out of there. No empathy or guidance whatsoever. What a joke of an organization.

The shock on the player’s face when he saw that he had to pay to rent a tv for his room😂It was at that moment he realized he played for the Bengals

R.I.P. Chris Henry

42:20 There is no need to tell a player he is getting waived at 5:30 am. Have some class, Bengals.

Chase Coffman with literally the worst pushups ever

Imagine turning away Chad Johnson or Carson Palmer for identification at a Bengals training camp.

Imagine making your pro football team rent TVs.

Chris Pressely is the real MVP. Grew up with nothing, had a child in high school but still had 3.9 and 4.0 GPA's and he also ended up having a 5 or so year career in the NFL surpassing every other fullback on the depth chart ahead of him. Lived his dream, made some good money and ended up having a decent career outside of football as well.

We went 10-6 this season, nothing to show for it, but as a bengals fan, this was literally a highlight of my childhood. Me and my dad would stay up and watch these, only reason we had HBO for a few months. This was awesome as a kid. The cinematography was crazy, the outlook on sports, as a kid I was mesmerized

Bless whoever is uploading hard knocks

Andrew Whitworth still dominating! #91 on the Top 100 players of 2019!

"Are you flying back to phoenix?" @5:30 am. As if he had planned all along to be cut.

In 2009 Chase Coffman did 0 push ups correctly.

Trash ownership = trash product

What a joke of an organization to wake a guy up at 5:30AM and throw this much information at him. I know it stings no matter the time of day but this seemed cheap.

rest easy chris henry, an amazing wide receiver gone so soon and young,#15✊🏽

I like those games in the beginning. It's competition and team bonding at the same time.

Marv been on the hot seat for 10 years 😭

this is entertaining because i am new fan to american football. That's why i loved the jets hard knocks. Much appreciated for the content.

I have been binge watching "Hard Knocks" over the last few days. This management team from top to bottom seems like there is zero energy, zero confidence, and zero passion.Compared to the others I've watched, (2001 Ravens, 2002 Cowboys, and 2010 Jets) this seems like a small college team rather than an NFL team. They make you pay for TVs? Really? A pro team has to pay for a TV in their rooms? The owner seems like he'd rather be anywhere but here. Hayes, the TE Coach, would put me to sleep if I had to sit through a meeting with him. And the short fat guy with his shorts up to his neck, is a real downer. Wow. He cuts a guy at 5:45am and asks the guy if he's flying back to Phoenix. The guy was asleep 30 seconds ago and you tell him he's cut because of lack of ability, and then you expect him to know if he's going back to Phoenix right now? No wonder they are one of the NFL's worst franchises of all time.

RIP Chris Henry🙏🏾

I'm stoked Chris Pressley had a 4-5 year career and made the 53 eventually. He played real physical it's good seeing underdogs win a career in the league like that

Rip Cedric benson 🙏🏾

Damn, I forgot Marvin Lewis was the ringmaster of this circus for that long! LOL!

WHODEY ALL DAY! Rip Chris Henry... Miss these days as a Bengals fan. Fun to watch.

Rest of nfl: game planning Bengals: playing tugawar

They got blown out by the Jets in Week 17, then eliminated from the playoffs the very next week by.. The JETS lol

I’m not even a huge nfl fan but this channel always has great content, really appreciate it.

YES YES YES, WHO DEY I LOVE YOU NFL THROWBACK

Chris Henry #15 would of been a Beast in the league....RIH

37:42 its hilarious how Chad just here's him out. Then walks away lol

I become teary eyed when 82 got the news and when he started to take off the pad & cried I also cried

I liked Marvin Lewis, it’s a shame he never won a playoff game

This reminds me of two days in high school

Chad Johnson was legendary in this hard knocks lol

"Child please....." & "Kiss the baby". Love these Ochocinco quotes! He was the flashiest of the flashes.

Daaaanng y'all remember Laverneous Coles? I use to always put dude at kick return on Madden😂😂😂

4:16 dude actually put his beer bottle in his pocket, what the heck lol

32:25 Chad got hands foreal foreal, that hand speed and coordination is no joke.

Marvin Lewis has landed on his feet very well. Congrats coach!🏈🏈👏🏾👏🏾😊😊

The Bengals really made the players pay for their own TVs lmaooo

What Katie Blackburn said around 29:19-29:28 is 100% correct & I completely agree with her on that. As long as I've been an NFL fan (to be more specific, a Chicago Bears fan) & for as long as I've been watching the NFL as a whole & reading up on other teams/etc., there's one thing I never understood & it's just that very thing that she points out during these contract negotiations, for example. This scenario is a perfect example of something along the lines of what NFL Hall-Of-Famer Warren Sapp from the Oakland Raiders said at one point in life: "I'm playing a kids game & being paid the king's ransom.". Warren Sapp first said that sometime in early-2003, I believe... I recall reading that quotation from him back when I was in middle school & to this day, that quotation has always stuck with me, but, that's another story for another day.

CHILD PLEASE!💯 Greatest catchphrase ever!

Damn this series is already showing how terrible the Bengals organization was ran

What a riveting speech by Mike Brown. Would have thought he was held at gun point w/that shit ass speech lol

RIP Chris Henry. Who dey nation misses you.

This was my favorite season.

Sniff smells the cleats, and says "mmm 🤢 that's love" 😂😂😂 @5:36

even through all da years of misery i love this team

I just watched the cowboys hard knocks so it’s funny seeing Roy again

this team had so much talent

11:12 Tank Johnson talking to that little kid like he is a teammate lol

OK drill, the most scariest but also most fun thing you will ever experience

I love this

Wow I wasn't expecting my dude to be released at the end there. Plot twist. I hope he found another team to play on, and did well.

I never thought Andre Smith would last in the NFL as long as he did. Oh my God Mike Sheppard I never thought he would get another coaching job. He was my Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator in 2001 we would 3 + 13

As a Bengals fan, I dearly miss big Andrew Whitworth! One of the franchise’s best tackles next to Muñoz of course.

I wish more teams across all levels still did Oklahoma drills, we stopped in HS then was so excited to find out we still did it in college during camp 😂

RIP Chris Henry

Loving these! Can you guys repost the Browns ones from last year?

Chad had those house speakers knocking! LoL

Mike Brown simply is ghastly terrible in just about everything he does.

You could see Chris Henry wearing #15 when coach started talking to the team, RIP

Was Mike Brown's speech supposed to get the players fired up? it was pretty terribe

God bless you guys Always keep God first

Bro I love watching these older hard knocks cuz u watchin guys try with everything they have to make the cut, while we kno what became of all of em!! R.I.P. Chris Henry & R.I.P. Ced Benson! Also mike brown makes me absolutely love our owner Steve Bisciotti even more than i already do!! Did u see them trash ass rooms?? Plus imagine charging pro football players at your facilities and your “trash ass facilities” at that, imagine charging them to rent TVs for they rooms, and charging more and more depending on HOW MANY INCHES THE DAM TV IS 😂😂😂😂😂😂 no wonder some franchises, like my Ravens, will never hafta deal with some of these wild ass conditions these dudes had to deal with ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼

11:18 little kid Tank talking to is Jaxson Hayes for the Pelicans

Still going through the same struggles

4:08 Give me a dip coach 😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣😂🤣

T O on the team Getcha popcorn 🍿 ready

85 pulling up in a mercury murader.. Nice..

*Child Please.....* - A wise man once said

I remember the Oklahoma drill when I played in high school where there’s a DL and OL 1 on 1 and there’s a RB and LB or FS/SS 1 on 1

6:32. He was not having it 🤣😭

... Football is a dangerous sport, I will never let my kids play it.

Never seen this season! pumped!

Thank You Thanks

Bengals had some talented player's on this team

damn, just looked at my phone and found out Benson died R.I.P

Defence!!!!!!!

Great teams always have a Reggie Kelley on their team 🏆

Roy Williams' performance in the Oklahoma drills pretty much sum up his career...and Coffman's push-ups need work.

that marvin lewis was a heck of a coach took my bengals to the playoffs but couldn't win god bless lol now lets go joe burrow i miss ochoand aj and whitworth

Reggie Kelly almost crying still hurts man. 😔

How many of you learned what "Child, please!..." meant because of this episode of 'NFL Hard Knocks'?...

Yo I met Reggie at my church in Mississippi bro I didn’t even know the dude was on Hard Knocks he’s enjoying retirement well it seems

5:30am wake the man up from dead sleep to cut em.. that’s tough

That tug of war rope is the hardest working rope in the whole United States

I miss Okahomas man. I dont miss the spots and stars floting round my head the rest of the night but I miss the hitting lol

Damn I forgot Laverneus Coles and Roy Williams played for the Bengals late in their careers.

42:52 That's life in the NFL

RIP chrish Henry

Isn’t this the year Chris Henry died?😭😥

8:29 wow how am i supposed to be motivated after that speech?

32:12 Ochocinco would’ve got popped with that slow reaction honesty 😂😂

33:44 🎵🎵🎵🎵 absolute banger

He reported to camp at 276 pounds.....he is now at 279..... ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
