Sidney Rice hopes to celebrate Sunday in Chicago

The Vikings head to Chicago to battle the NFC North rival Bears, looking to get back on track at Soldier Field.  The Vikings are 1-and-3 on the season and are coming off of their bye week.  They lost their last game September 30th to Green Bay.  Starting quarterback Tarvaris Jackson missed the last two games with a groin injury, but is probable to make the start against the Bears.  Kelly Holcomb will fill in if Jackson is a no-go.  Chicago is coming off a huge 27-20 win over the Packers at Lambeau Field, and for the first time all year, there is no quarterback controversy.  Brian Griese threw for 214 yards and a touchdown, including the game-winning 34-yard score to tight end Desmond Clark, as the Bears improved to 2-and-3 on the year.  Chicago won 23-13 the last time the two teams played on December 3rd of last year.
