Apparently losing in Seattle in the playoffs is death to coaches (parcells, gibbs). Not very important I know. Does anyone think he will stick around the skins organization in a supervisor role of some sorts?

He's already said he will, as an "advisor" to Snyder.

He'll be Snyder's consultant, whatever that means. He'll still be in the DC area a lot and be involved with the franchise to some extent.
All former CEOs get to be "consultants" of the companies that they used to run, if they retire. They get an office that they never use and give advice that is never listened to. I hope this isn't the case with Joe, but I fear it will be.
A couple of interesting tidbits from Joe Gibbs' press conference:
1. When Gibbs was asked about the next head coach, he gave a canned answer (mirroring what Snyder said earlier) that it would go through a process. Then someone asked a questions about Gregg Williams, and Gibbs responded in depth about what a great job Williams did, calling it miraculous. He further said Dan Snyder knows all of the coaches well.
2. When asked about hiring a GM, Snyder very quickly responded that he and Joe both thought the current process worked well and "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." It sounds like Snyder wants the structure to stay the same with the new coach taking Joe Gibbs role in player acquisition and assessments. My big concern is that although Gibbs always said it was a committe approach (with Snyder and Cerato), Gibbs held all the juice. If Williams is hired, he probably will not, with makes Snyder and Cerato more influential.

Gibbs won't have an office at Redskin Park, according to Sportstalk 980 this afternoon. I take that to mean he'll chat with them a few times a year from NC.
