AVONDALE, Ariz. -- A relaxed Kevin Harvick sat on the wall of pit road after qualifying Friday night as if he didnt have the weight of the season riding on Sunday afternoon at Phoenix International Raceway.Harvick faces a virtual must-win situation Sunday if he wants to advance to be among the four drivers eligible for the championship Nov. 20 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.He has capitalized on must-win situations before. Harvick has also experienced victory after bad races dropped him into perilous situations over the past three years of the elimination-style Chase for the Sprint Cup format.He is at no better track to need a win. Harvick has won four of the past five races at Phoenix since joining Stewart-Haas Racing, and he has triumphed in six of the past eight overall.I have magic, Harvick quipped. I went to Disney World one time. And I found this magic wand. And I wave it here.Starting sixth in the race Sunday, Harvick is expected to be a force. But one of his biggest concerns could be Austin Dillon, who delivered a veiled threat to Harvick after he wrecked Dillon last Sunday at Texas.He didnt like it that the silver-spoon kid was out-running him tonight. ... There are two more weeks (for possibly payback), Dillon said last Sunday.Asked about it Friday, Dillon said, I dont really have no comment. Im here to race and win this race.Harvick, who said in 2013 that the Dillon brothers have got no respect for what they do in this sport and theyve had everything fed to them with a spoon, left a message for Dillon over the past week. Dillon, the grandson of team owner Richard Childress, did not return the message.He can handle things however he wants to handle them, Harvick said. Obviously hes a little bit bitter over what I said in [2013], and thats probably a little bit my fault for not speaking to him about those situations. ... As far as the incident itself, it is pretty self-explanatory when you watch the in-car as to what happened.There was nothing intentional there. He was mad and he should be mad. Theyre just starting to perform like they need to perform, and he likes to win. Hes a competitor, and I cant blame him for that.Harvick says he thinks tracks havent done enough to honor his team co-owner Tony Stewart, who will retire from Cup racing after this season. Stewart publicly stated he didnt want a bunch of attention, as Jeff Gordon received a year earlier, but Harvick said more should have been done anyway.I dont think anybody did a very good job of giving him the credit that he deserved throughout the year from the race tracks and from a sport standpoint, Harvick said. Thats been very disappointing.I know that Tony probably would say he wouldnt want that [hoopla].Maybe Harvick was just trying to turn the story of his back against the wall into a story about Stewart. His team doesnt need the distraction.We just try not to even think about the Chase part of it, crew chief Rodney Childers said. I just try to think about going and winning races. ... We definitely have to work hard and put our best effort forward and do everything right.Harvick said his position is no different than the rest of the Chase field who face possible elimination. Jimmie Johnson and Carl Edwards have already clinched spots, and two points separate Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Matt Kenseth and Denny Hamlin. Kurt Busch?is 33 points behind the cutoff. Only two of the six drivers will advance Sunday with four of the drivers eliminated.A win will clinch a berth for any of the drivers, but Logano can clinch a spot if he finishes second and leads a lap; Busch if he finishes second and leads the most laps. If not, they need circumstances to fall in their favor for them to advance.Everybody is in the same position that we are, Harvick said.Because if somebody [in the Chase] wins, there is only going to be one points guy that goes through, so you need to pretend like youre in a must-win situation. ... From a team standpoint, to see what everybody is at and how they approach it on our team is fun to me. I like to see them performing and working at that level. Cyber Monday Shoes .

How great will be revealed in the next couple of days at the board of governors meeting in Pebble Beach, Calif. Shoes Sale SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- A Chip Kelly-coached team is usually synonymous with a fast-paced and prolific offense.But in his first game as San Franciscos coach on Monday night, Kellys defense pitched its first opening week shutout in franchise history as the 49ers got a 28-0 win over the Los Angeles Rams.We felt good about our defense going into this game, but you never know until you get a chance to go out there, Kelly said. To hold (Todd) Gurley, who I think is one of the top backs in the league, to under 50 yards, I think thats a good day for us defensively.The game plan was to limit Gurley and force quarterback Case Keenum to beat the 49ers through the air. Gurley finished with 47 yards rushing on 17 carries while Keenum completed just 49 percent of his passes for 130 yards.If you cant stop the run in this league, you struggle to stop anything, defensive coordinator Jim ONeil said. Again, the guys up front did a great job. We played good team defense. Guys executed.Los Angeles had as many punts (10) as first downs. Keenum was intercepted twice and San Francisco outgained the Rams 320 yards to 185.NaVorro Bowman registered an interception, leaping to snag a deflectiion by defensive lineman Quinton Dial in the second quarter.dddddddddddd The turnover led to the 49ers second touchdown of the game.We went out expecting the Rams to play better than they did, Bowman said, expecting the Rams to get the ball in their playmakers hands. And the coaches did a great job with preparing us for this week. ... We did everything that we were supposed to do.The 49ers say their strengths defensively are depth and versatility. They rotated Gerald Hodges and Ray-Ram Armstrong at inside linebacker Monday in the heart of their 3-4 defense next to Bowman. They also tried three-safety formations, allowing second-year standout Jaquiski Tartt to play 16 snaps in a specialized role roving the middle of the field.It helps when youre trying to match up, and its a match-up league, Kelly said. People want to go big, we have the big personnel to go up against you. If youre going to go little, I think we can match up with you when you go little.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
