Best all around TE I ever saw play in 35 plus years of watching football. Underrated reciever, didn't have sexy stats on a run dominant team. They would have him block Reggie White one on one! That is how fucking insane of a blocker he was.
I got the chance to meet him and have my picture taken with him when I was 13 (I’m 46 now). The Giants used to go to training camp with the Patriots up here at Bryant College (now University). This was back when they let fans go right up to players after practice. I remember him being jacked, soft-spoken and resembled Sylvester Stallone. Lawrence Taylor, Carl Banks and Joe Morris were also very nice. Phil Simms was holding out that summer.
Have never been a Giants fan, but loved watching there games back then to watch Mark just dominate the field. My favorite Tight End in the history of the NFL It really is a shame that he's not in the Hall of Fame, and this younger generation will never comprehend how impactful this guy was.
Mark Bavaro in 1986 had the greatest complete year for a tight end in the history of the NFL. In 1990 he caught 33 passes for the season and 13 passes for the playoffs. I don't think Mark remembers but I do, he only dropped one pass for the entire season and playoffs. A home game against the Redskins IN 1990
We don’t hear enough from Mark Bavarro . He was the premier TE in his days. I can watch him carrying the entire 49’s defense on his back for 20 yards 100 times on RUclips and never get tired of it. If not for the star power of LT, Simms, coach Parcel etc… Could have easily been the biggest attraction. Don’t get me wrong, the was LT’s team by all means, but Mark was able to still stand out. Not enough is written or mentioned bout him on a national platform, but in NY, he’s forever beloved.
Iconic prayer in the end zone against the broncos superbowl 21. In 1987 i was 14 yrs old and i still remember it like it was yesterday. Very memorable team with Joe Morris, sean landetta, phil sims, banks and taylor. Im not even a big giants fan but i remember that team
I heard Phil Simms tell a great Bravaro story...During a tight playoff game,Bravaro was called for holding....Parcells screamed out....Bravaro,were you holding on that play.....Bravaro yelled back....Coach,I hold on every play.
How he is not in Canton is beyond me. He saved so many big games from getting out of the hands of the team winning, that it is crazy how people don't remember. He was always a key read for Simms and Hostetler. The offense was always a run first offense, and his blocking was top notch. A great leader and ambassador for the team off the field. To this day we remember him as a true great. There needs to be a place in Canton for TEs like him. He is my favourite giants' offensive weapon of all time, as he did it all, while representing the best of what a NFL legend is supposed to be. He could have played in any era and not adapted accordingly. The man is an icon in my eyes. Easily in my top 10 TEs that I have ever seen.
I think one of the reasons he is not in the hall if he did not have enough career receptions. But there is a lot more to a tight end then how many catches he has. How good of a blocker is he. After at is a Tight End not really part of the offensive line.
Fun to watch, but not even remotely a HOF'er. He had two really good years, and that was it. A lot of it was due to injuries, but that does not change the fact that he had a 2 year-peak, and then nothing. The guy averaged less than 3 catches and barely 35 yards a game. And even his output in the playoffs does not bolster his argument for the Hall.
@@bauerj3398 A well put argument. I definitely think that he is just one of those iconic players that fans could connect with due to his lunch bucket 9 to 5 attitude about the game. The ring of honor, along with the hearts and minds of us fans will do just fine. Thanks for the reply, and keep safe.
@@derrrick7759 A 49'ers fan paying respect to a NYG? Good on you mate! Bavaro was/is one of the best all time, tough as nails and a winner. My favorite Giant? The Jolly Green Giant, Andre The Giant and The Iron Giant.
I hate the Giants with a passion but I got mad respect for Mark Bavaro and he was a blue-collar player and a beast and should be in the NFL Hall Of Fame
patsfan here and ive occasionally sorta thought the same thing-these other 3 whove responded to you clearly have no clue what theyre talking about...Gronk could block like him if not far better-despite richard marinos likely hometown and oldschool biases he clearly wasnt inferior in any way to Bavarro, and before injuries slowed him down Gronk was definitely not sluggish compared to Kelce or Kittle...TBH Kelce and Kittle are jokes compared to Gronk...If the Pats had been able to put weapons like T.Hill S.Watkins and Hardman around Gronk-players who can all stretch the field and keep the safeties and nickel away from Gronks spine knees and ankles for a few extra steps after Gronk makes the catch-he never would have taken nearly that kind of beating...If hes so sluggish how come despite never having had the benefit of being surrounded by WRs who can stretch the field as a Patriot he still averaged over 15yards per reception while(battling injuries),compared to the less than 13yrds per rec Kelce avgs or even the 13.5 Kittles avgs?Pathetic to hear anyone speak that way about gronk...was the most dominant and complete TE the game has seen, was arguably the best weapon anyone had to work with and most dominant player in the league for the better part of a decade...no other Tight End has been that kind of player and he was a better blocker than the overwhelming majority of the Pats offensive linemen as well...
@Richard Marino lmfao sounds like maybe youve run out of vagisil again...gronk finally snapped after being screwed over by the league for yrs.. he was in fact blatantly held on that play uve mentioned, but the refs didnt call it...i won't say what he did was right but after yrs of having players grabbing him and get away with it while he ran routes and then spear his knees while he make the catch and the refs increasingly calling him for opi seemingly everytime a wind gust pushes a db or lb eventually he was gonna snap...bavarro was on a different level alright-a lower one...he didnt carry any offense let alone a team...the nyg defense was the better half of that team and their running game the better half of their offense....gronk was best option of the pats primary method for moving the ball and their offense was the better half of their team...like it or not gronk was better and tougher than bavarro ever was...deal with it
@@dp233332 Well said. I was complimenting Gronk by comparing him to Bavaro. I’m as old school as it gets, and I saw almost all of Bavaro’s games as a Giant, many in person, but there is no doubt in my mind that Gronk is the greatest tight end ever. This idiot Marino showed by his vulgar and ignorant comment that he wouldn’t know a football if he passed one through his colon.
I grew up in Louisiana and I was definitely a Saints fan, but Mark Bavarro impressed me from the first time I saw him play and instantly became a huge fan!! Don’t make Tight Ends like #89 anymore!!!
Growing up in New Jersey in the 80’s was awesome. Bavaria was the Rambo of the Giants! Great teams and great times. Sure glad I got to see the it first hand. Great memories!
Thank you for the sublime video of Mr. Mark Bavaro: a real life badass with a lot of class! Brought back so many memories of a time that I'm sure many Giant fans miss...
Mark Bavaro is an integral part of two Super Bowl Championship teams and certainly a high profile part of the New York Giants Hall of Fame (Ring of Honor). On the down side, he was such a big target and refused to go down, taking many vicious hits during his both his college and NFL career, plus a serious knee condition, cutting his playing career and career stats short, and that's probably why he won't make the NFL Hall of Fame. But we will always remember him for the six years of pure joy that he brought us during the 1985-1990 period. And if NFL Hall of Fame status were measured as value to two Super Bowl championship teams within a four-year period, he would definitely be there.
Excellent highlight video . Bavaro had great hands , no one was better after catching the ball , ran like a locomotive, and a top notch blocker . He was always quiet and let his game do the talking . The best tight end ever . Journey well, Merc
I’m not a Giants fan but I’m a Mark Bavaro fan. He’s one tough SOB that played the game the right way. You wouldn’t lose a game if you had a team of Bavaro like players.
Fave Giant of all time and the only jersey I’ve ever owned. I gave it to Jr rather than be buried in it. Thank you for a very special time to be a Giant fan.
Thank you forever Mark Bavaro. Rambo. Truly an All Time Team Great Giant. You were legendary on NYG teams that, thankfully , were blessed with many legendary players. All time tough. My favorite story of you is the one that's told by another NYG Legend, Phil McConkey. He tells of his Mother and her friends praying feverishly for the young but disheveled , long haired looking guy in beat up jeans and a Knick's jersey ,who would attend the earliest Mass every morning. Like, every morning. Thanks for the wins Mark.
Him and Tony Siragusa are the BEST recent Italians EVER to play in the NFL. Both well Household name's in their playing days and in my book, both should be in the NFL HOF - LEGENDS of Old HARD Knocks Football 🏈 God bless Them Both ✝️🇺🇸 ✝️
Will never forget his injury against the Chargers in 1989. He was sandwiched and took a devastating hit on his knee and you knew he was in trouble. The Giants kept lying saying he was week to week and I was like no way is this guy coming back. He was never the same player. What a shame but he was great.
Back in the mid-80's the debate was who's the better tight end, Mark Bavaro or Todd Christiansen. Bavaro was my guy. Tough, smart and a total team guy.
The Giants practices back in those days were worth paying to see. Those days were almost always full pads and they were allowed to hit in practice, unlike today. Imagine seeing Bavaro going against LT, and that LB Corp in a 7 on 7 drill.

@@GiantTributes8690 Yes sir. Dad was from Brooklyn, kept his season tickets until us kids were grown and moved away. But many fond memories of the ride from Hartford on game day with him and later on with friends.
The '87 Super Bowl was the first I ever watched. I was 8 years old and my father let me stay up late with my uncle to watch it. I grew up in Florida but my family was from NY and I remember really getting a sense of this during the game. Great game and great night. I think I still have Bavaro's playing cards somewhere in a box. That Bavaro to McConkey catch is forever ingrained into my memory.
This is Mr 80s tightvend for sure. Tucked sleeves ,bands &gloves he looks like mostvstylish tuff player he made NFL players want to show off guns. I feel less a man for not knowing him and now set for another workout. Thanks
I'm a Lions fan unfortunately but Mark Bavaro was a beast no doubt he belongs in the Hall of Fame and you could tell how much respect Bill Parcells had for him that's an honor and that says it all
I've been a Giant fan since 1963 mark bavaro is my all time favorite player. I couldn't tell you his numbers but my memories are pancake blocks and dragging defenders for first downs. He was awesome
I grew up on this Giants team. This country needs the Mark Bavaro spirit. Those were the days...
The most underrated TE in NFL history.
Can I like this comment 10 times.
Totally agree 100% He is in my football hall of fame.
He was on his way to a HOF career if not for that terrible knee injury.
He should still be in the HOF.
Best all around TE I ever saw play in 35 plus years of watching football. Underrated reciever, didn't have sexy stats on a run dominant team. They would have him block Reggie White one on one! That is how fucking insane of a blocker he was.
My favorite Giant of all time. He was Gronk before Gronk. Tough SOB. He’s a hall of famer in my book.
Absolutely
Yes, he was !!! He was all that and a bag of chips.
Im47 from Philly and he was my guy too
I got the chance to meet him and have my picture taken with him when I was 13 (I’m 46 now). The Giants used to go to training camp with the Patriots up here at Bryant College (now University).

Lawrence Taylor, Carl Banks and Joe Morris were also very nice. Phil Simms was holding out that summer.
@@justanotherguy7925 cool! Yeah, IMO Bavaro was Rocky Balboa in real life- seemed quiet, but when he was on the field, he was tough.
Football, like everything else, was SO much more fun and entertaining back then.
Have never been a Giants fan, but loved watching there games back then to watch Mark just dominate the field.
My favorite Tight End in the history of the NFL
It really is a shame that he's not in the Hall of Fame, and this younger generation will never comprehend how impactful this guy was.
Nothing more satisfying than watching Bavaro drag Ronnie Lott helpless down the field just holding on for dear life! LOL
Beautiful🤌🏽
As good as he was on the field. He’s a better person off the field. He’s a all pro guy. Ty mark for being a giant.
An exceptional tight end and an exceptional human!
A humble quiet GIANT with toughness.

I may not be a Giants fan but I do appreciate great talent and ability. He was awesome. I loved being The Giants in Tecmo Bowl for NES
Best tight end of time my favorite prayer I wish the Giants had a tight end like him now.
Regardless of the favorite team, you have to recognize the players who have has an outstanding performance.
Thank you for putting this together, brings back great memories.
Thanks for all of the plays, Rambo.
Bavaro was a total football player everything about him physical athletic tough as they come Italian he had it all
He revolutionized the position. Could play and dominate in any era
don't find pro athletes like #89 just played and hardly ever complain NY GIANTS for life
One of my all time favorites
Bavaro went to my High School’s rival, but I wore #89 when I played. There is a street in his hometown that’s named Bavaro Way.
Don’t forget he was a Philadelphia Eagle we were proud to have him
What other great athlete was from Philadelphia, you ask? You guessed it. Frank Stallone.
One of yesterday’s players who would get it done today
Favorite TE of all time.
The Giants practices back in those days were worth paying to see. Those days were almost always full pads and they were allowed to hit in practice, unlike today. Imagine seeing Bavaro going against LT, and that LB Corp in a 7 on 7 drill.
