The Texans have made an interesting choice for its head coach - David Culley.
This is the first time he has been a head coach at the pro or college level.
In his entire career, he has only been an Offensive Coordinator one year - over 20 years ago at UTEP.
Saw a rumor that Leslie Frazier (another candidate with multiple interviews) had asked the Texans for a longer term - more years on the contract. Any head coaching candidate should have demanded a Matt Rhule type contract - 7 years. Obviously it wouldn't guarantee that the coach would reach the end of the contract but it may make the Texans think twice about firing too early.

David Culley’s hiring by the Houston Texans at age 65 is historic. Culley becomes the oldest first-time head coach in NFL history, per Elias Sports

And it looks like the Texans have assembled his staff rather quickly:
