Jaworski turned out to be the kind of quarterback that Carmichael. At the same time, Carmichael was the wide receiver who helped Jaworski establish himself as a starter in the NFL. Together, they helped the Eagles snap a nearly two-decade-long playoff drought, ultimately reaching the Super Bowl during the 1980 season. The Jaworski-Carmichael tandem was arguably the most influential factor in turning the Eagles from perennial losers into a winning franchise.
