Drastic? How many times did we hear Gibbs say he'd like to get them on the field at the same time? I've even heard Zorn mention it a time or two.
I guess the point I'm making is that CP alone in the backfield means the defense, literally the whole f'n defense, is keying on him. Of course this is because the pass does not look like a serious threat at this point. So... put another legit threat in the backfield. Mix it up even. Swap Betts and Sellers part of the time. But the important thing is to give some reps to the other guy. If we just use Betts/Sellers as a decoy for CP (as it seemed Gibbs did a time or two) then the double threat is lost. CP as a decoy for the other will open some lanes initially and start to give the defense different looks.
Personally, I like CP on a dive and Sellers on a sweep - nobody would expect it and I want to see Mike hurdle again
