Rushing Attack Option?

I'm a little surprised that Chris Cooley hasn't received a single rush attempt this year. He is in the backfield at the snap frequently, and opposing defenses have all but tuned him out as anything but a blocker.

I don't expect any 100-yard games out of him, but it seems that he might be a viable option on a 2nd-and-short to keep the linebackers honest. Fake the sweep to Portis and draw Cooley up the middle.

OK, I admit it. He's my goal-line back in Madden. Is that so wrong?
