SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- San Francisco 49ers running back Carlos Hyde is eager to see what Chip Kellys offense can do for his career.Im approaching this year as a make or break year, Hyde said. Im going to make it or it aint going to work. Im really trying to focus in on this year. To me, this is a huge year.Hyde, 24, is hoping his new coach can replicate what he did in Philadelphia, where in 2013 Kelly helped LeSean McCoy lead the NFL with 1,607 yards rushing and helped the Eagles improve from 4-12 to 10-6.Kellys up-tempo offense ranked first and ninth on the ground during his first two seasons with Philadelphia, before falling to 14th after McCoy was traded to Buffalo before last season.When watching McCoy in 2013, Hyde saw an offense that spread defenses out and put the running back in open space against defenders. It led to big plays, which the 49ers struggled to produce in 2015, when they fielded the leagues 31st-ranked offense.I think what helped LeSean big time getting all those yards was he did a great job making a guy miss, Hyde said. Hed make a guy miss and hed break off for about 50 yards for a big touchdown. Instead of just getting tackled for 10 or 11 yards, hes getting explosive gains.With Hyde as a centerpiece in his offense, Kelly is tasked with improving San Francisco after it finished 5-11 in 2015. The team fired coach Jim Tomsula after just one season.Theres a physicality to (Hydes) game, Kelly said. I think it makes him a dangerous weapon in terms of being able to not only make people miss, but to kind of go through and to break arm tackles and to gain that tough yardage when it really looks like theres nothing there.For Hyde to produce numbers similar to McCoys, hes going to have to stay healthy. In 2015, the Ohio State alum sat out the final nine games after sustaining a stress fracture in his left foot that required surgery. Hyde finished with 470 yards and three touchdowns in his first season as the starter after Frank Gore left to join the Indianapolis Colts following 10 seasons with San Francisco.Hyde said hes fully recovered from the injury and rehabilitation from surgery didnt slow his work during the offseason program.Hes been very diligent in terms of how he approached this season, but there are some things that are out of peoples control, Kelly said. I dont know if theres any protocol out there that you can work on to prevent a broken bone.The 49ers are planning to have an improved offensive line in front of Hyde. They added guard Zane Beadles in free agency, used a first-round pick on Stanford guard Joshua Garnett and have tackle Anthony Davis back after he retired before last season.Add in Kellys signature up-tempo approach and Hyde thinks the 49ers could surprise teams with their running attack by tiring out defenses.Im thinking if theyre tired, lets go, lets go, lets go, said Hyde. Keep your foot on the pedal, press down even harder. ... Thats what you got to be conditioned for. You got to be in shape, not out of breath, so next play you can come be explosive. So while theyre tired, youre still explosive and theyre just falling off while youre running.---Online: AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Sione Takitaki Womens Jersey .

Winchester, who was not penalized for the hit, appeared to make contact with Kellys head early in the first period of Thursdays game in Boston. Every team needs a player for a crisis. For Zimbabwe, Sikandar Raza has often been that player. He bats anywhere from 1 to 7, is as electric and energetic at short cover as he is at deep midwicket and, against West Indies in Bulawayo on Friday, he even opened the bowling, playing an all-round hand in one of Zimbabwean crickets finest come-from-behind wins.Raza seems to score a lot of his runs when others havent, and thrives on pressure. His first international innings of note was an 82 against India in 2013. No one else reached fifty that day. His third ODI ton, against New Zealand in August last year, rescued the team from 68 for 5, with Raza all the way down at No. 7, becoming the only Zimbabwe batsman to score a hundred from that position. Two months later, his busy 60 not out with Nos. 9 and 10 for company marshalled Zimbabwe to a nervous, narrow two-wicket win over Ireland in Harare.Two weeks after that, he was at it again, against Afghanistan. Batting at No. 6, he entered in the 15th over with Zimbabwe rudderless at 45 for 4. He weathered some determined bowling, and a withering blow to the groin, to make 86 when no other batsman reached 30.He has modestly summed up his batting technique as see ball, hit ball, and try to survive, and though he is actually blessed with natural flair, some of his best knocks have been his ugliest, when he has had to restrain the inner fighter pilot - a position he was training for in Pakistan before an eye condition compelled him to make a switch to cricket - and fly a figurative Cessna 172 instead. With Zimbabwe slipping to 89 for 7 against West Indies, today was one of those days, as he ground his way to 76 not out from 103 deliveries, with just three fours.Theres nothing wrong with saying it was an ugly innings - it may have been - but I think thats exactly what we needed, Raza said after Zimbabwes win. The flair will remain there. But you also have to show some responsibility when youve played 60 one-day internationals. I was the only senior guy out there, so in my head all I was thinking was that as long as Im out there with these guys, I can help them to maybe build an innings, and well see what happens in the end. As long as we stay out there, we can give ourselves a fighting chance to win the game.That very thing - a fighting chance to win the game - is something Raza seems to carry with him, whether he is slugging it out with the bat, twirling the ball down, or patrolling extra cover with his magnetic hands. His bowling, which involves as much bluff and belief as it does skill, was not quite as fluent as it could have been against West Indies, but if you were only watching the bowler youd swear every delivery should have brought a wicket. Sharing the new ball with Tendai Chisoro, Raza leaked nine runs in his first over. Hiis second, a maiden full of fizz and vim, was completed in under two minutes.ddddddddddddIn his body language, one finds further clues to his singular enjoyment in the game, whatever the situation. In the field, he holds his head slightly forward, craning his neck as if to wedge himself right into the moment. He can rarely be found standing still. His habit is to take every drink, whether he is holding a bat, or in the field, down on one bended knee. Every achievement and milestone is acknowledged devoutly, with a glance into the heavens.At a sodden Queens Sports Club against West Indies, there were a couple of one-kneed drinks breaks during his record 91-run stand for the 9th wicket with Chisoro. That partnership was the bedrock upon which was built a victory that ranks as one of Zimbabwes unlikeliest. Theyve been in tight spots before, and come back from them. But one struggles to think of another occasion when they have sunk quite so deep into the mire, and managed to resurface in this fashion, rain and all, against a major cricketing nation. When Chisoro was named Man of the Match at the presentation ceremony, Raza was at the front of the Zimbabwe posse, clapping and cheering louder than anyone else. Despite his own top-scoring innings, he insisted that credit goes to TC [Tendai Chisoro] for how he batted out there. He deserves all the credit.Thats another feature of his cricket: he backs his team-mates and revels in their successes, even the minor ones. During the tie against West Indies last weekend, he ran 20 or 30 metres in from his position at long off to shout congratulations and encouragement at Elton Chigumbura, on the other side of the field at deep midwicket, after a good stop.He is also beloved by the fans. When he was placed at deep midwicket during Chris Mpofus spell on Friday afternoon, the all-singing, all-dancing supporters there welcomed him with chants of Raza, Raza, Raza! With a smile and a wave, he acknowledged their warmth.His family loves him too, and likewise there is a clear sense of Razas devotion to them. Ive been short of runs for a long time, he admits. What [this innings and the fifty last weekend] does for me, is maybe give me a bit of confidence. But what really matters is the joy that it brings to others. After all the sleepless nights that mom and dad had, and all those times they were up late at night just to pray for me, because I was going through a rough patch. I can tell you that now they can have early nights at times, and they dont have to worry too much.As long as they have got a player like Raza in their XI, whatever crises and collapses come their way, Zimbabwe should not worry too much either.
