CHICAGO -- The Vikings dropped to 3-6 with Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Bears, meaning coach Brad Childress again can expect to hear plenty about his lack of job security this week as his team prepares to play Green Bay at Mall of America Field.

"You deal with it," Childress said when asked about how he will handle knowing there are many who will call for him to be fired. "It's not something you're happy to deal with but you deal with what's out there. My name's behind the Vikings team and it all starts with me. So if it gets directed there that's part of the equation."

Childress, though, expects to be coaching the Vikings a week from today. ""Until I get told any differently, yeah," Childress said when asked if he thought he would be on the sideline next Sunday.

Owner Zygi Wilf was at the game today and there is no indication he plans to make a coaching move.

A couple other notes from today.

Wide receiver Bernard Berrian said he did not play because the groin injury that landed him on the injury report Friday was bothering him. Brett Favre said he thought Berrian hurt his groin on the first pass he was thrown in pregame warmups but Berrian seemed to indicate on Twitter that wasn't the case.

"4 the record don't ever question my heart or toughness," Berrian tweeted. "Played plenty games injured. U just don't hear bout it. N warmup had nothin 2 do w/it."

Said Childress in his postgame news conference: "[Berrian] was set to go, we had him up and I knew it was bugging him a little bit. He said he didn't feel like he'd be able to go."

Wide receiver Percy Harvin, meanwhile, aggravated the injury to his left ankle on a kickoff return and had to leave the game.
