The playing surface at Soldier Field could be an issue for the Week 1 “Monday Night Football” contest between the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings.

The grounds crew at Soldier Field has had plenty of time to prepare for Week 1. However, Soldier Field has been a popular venue this offseason for other events.
