description

Star Giants tight end Mark Bavaro showcased the skills that made him such a valuable offensive threat throughout his career on this third-down play, hauling in this pass over a defender for a 24-yard score. Bavaro's touchdown opened the scoring in this Divisional Round matchup between the Giants and 49ers, and New York wouldn't stop scoring until they'd gotten into the end zone on seven different occasions. Bavaro finished with two catches for 47 yards and one score, as the Giants won this one, 49-3, on Jan. 4, 1987.
