I doubt it would be more profitable than, say, a 737/320 on the route. The fuel expenses are just too big, and the turn time horrendous, so the few routes it manages to fly, doesn't earn much money.

I wish there was a way of making these birds pay well

Dunno as to the SR specifically, but I have one airline with a 744D on a Triangle between ATL-ORD,ORD-DFW,ATL-DFW and it earns €337,171 with 568 pax.

Hartsfield - Jackson Atlanta InternationalChicago O'Hare International1100%€156€121,510
Hartsfield - Jackson Atlanta InternationalDallas/Fort Worth International1100%€153€116,183
Chicago O'Hare InternationalDallas/Fort Worth International1100%€138€99,478

Notably less than the A322, but this has way more passengers.
