Mahomes is clearly in the Broncos’ sights as they reflect on a breakthrough season and prepare for 2025, when they’ll only have $32.25 million in dead cap charges, most of it from the remainder of Russell Wilson’s contract. “I didn’t see a gap last weekend until the second half,” Payton said. “I felt real confident we could go in there, play well and win. We obviously didn’t play well enough. But those lines are much finer than we think. I use that term, there’s a fine line between a groove and a run. It’s a player. It’s two players. It’s the line of scrimmage. It’s the kicking game.”
