It's not just money they would be eating by moving on from Payton. They also gave up serious draft capital. You don't do that for a HC who you then move on from after just 1 year. 

Their defense has been terrible, but Wilson has 66.1% Completion, 16 TD/4 INT, and a 101.7 QB Rating with no #1 WR and a TE group that is probably bottom-5. They also can't realistically move on from Wilson even if they wanted to until 2026 without killing themselves cap-wise even if they did want to get rid of their offensive HC after 1 year for a defensive one.

I think Payton gets 2 more years at least.

I do agree with you Bettcher is probably the choice unless he goes with Lou to be his DC.

They also beat the Chiefs and at least seem to be trending in an upwards direction.
