USA Today's staff thinks so. They posed the question, 'Who is the best play caller in the NFL,' to USA Today's NFL staff. Each submitted their own list, and after the results were tallied, Holmgren was voted the numero uno play-caller in the NFL. The staff then asked for comments from Troy Aikman (Fox), Cris Collinsworth (NBC), Ron Jaworski (ESPN) and Phil Simms (CBS). Said Simms:

"Matt Hasselbeck can look at more receivers on one pass play than anybody I've seen in the NFL. And that is a direct reflection of Mike Holmgren and his system." The story can be found here. Tom Moore of the Colts was second. Mike Shanahan of the Broncos came in third.
