Yeah, he would have more
room, but he also has more unblocked guys. That's not a good idea with Portis who tends to dance.
There are pros and cons to running out of any formation and a lot of it has to do with how the D is going to play it. I don't understand why it's so black and white to you.
It's not like you can't run out of the Jumbo...that's what it is designed for.
