Portis: Sit or Start Him?

So say we sit Portis. Do you think we should use Betts like we use Portis- and by that I mean how we use Portis when we're successful- running the ball about 30 times in a game (not saying Betts would get all of those carries)? I'm not sure how effective it would be, but when we can run we usually win. It's fun to speculate, however I'm pretty sure Portis is playing.
