Don't know if it possible to protect this hand but maybe there is a better line to take.

I like it with no reads on the players.

However, if the cutoff or MP3 are aggressive flop betters, I look for a check-raise on the flop.

Betting is good. Not much you can do against loose calling stations. (Not that you would want to do anything about them.)
