The Pittsburgh Steelers coaching staff is “expected to undergo a considerable makeover” in the offseason according to a report by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The defending Super Bowl champion Steelers are currently 6-7 after starting the year 6-2.

The team’s five game losing streak, including a horrible showing against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday, has brought a ton of scrutiny to the crew.

Head coach Mike Tomlin is not expected to be shown the door. However, special teams coordinator Bob Ligashesky, offensive coordinator Bruce Arians and offensive line coach Larry Zierlein cold find themselves looking for work come January.

A report by Schefter identified Ligashesky as being the most likely to go.

There was also speculation Sunday that Steelers G.M. Kevin Colbert may consider leaving the organization to join former coach Bill Cowher at his new home, wherever that may be, next season.
