The Vikings will be lucky to beat the Bears out for the NFC North's likely wild card playoff spot.
In addition to all of the personnel losses on defense that you listed...
Sheil Kapedia has an article up at The Athletic talking about strength of schedule for this year. He uses the QB ratings he got from the 50 coaches and personnel guys he interviewed - to map out who has the toughest 2020 schedule. And based on quality of QBs on the schedule, the vikings are the lucky winners as having the toughest one of all.

1. Minnesota Vikings

Opponents by QB Tier: T1: 5 | T2: 6 | T3: 2 | T4: 3

Russell Wilson
Aaron Rodgers (2)
Drew Brees
Deshaun Watson

Tom Brady
Matthew Stafford (2)
Matt Ryan
Dak Prescott
Philip Rivers

Ryan Tannehill
Teddy Bridgewater

Foles/Trubisky (2)
Gardner Minshew

The Vikings play a league-high 11 games against quarterbacks in the top two tiers. They face four of the five Tier 1 quarterbacks, including Aaron Rodgers twice, plus the top quarterback from the second tier in Tom Brady. Mahomes is the only Tier 1 quarterback the Vikings do not play.
.

MN always brags to Packers fans that they have a harder schedule which is not really fair because the only real difference between us and them is we play Philly. They play Dallas. We play SF and we play Seattle.

We actually have the harder schedule in theory because we placed first.

What always skews the schedule strength is Minnesota has to plus us twice (a harder team). And we get to play MN twice (an easier team).

Our "terrible" WRs are gonna torch their unprepared CBs in week one and everyone will be like "but the Vikings had such a good draft! what happened?"

The Vikings will be lucky to beat the Bears out for the NFC North's likely wild card playoff spot.
Honestly, I can't WAIT to see Mike Hughes and Jeff Gladney take turns getting torched by Davante while Cameron Danzler and Holton Hill try to keep up with our big guys. I'd bet right now they pull a CB for performance during the game.

I can't WAIT to see what Z will do to a rookie OT in Ezra Cleveland who is athletic but needs to gain strength in the NFL. Can you imagine? Truncated offseason, no NFL strength program, already considered soft, and your FIRST NFL matchup is ZaDarius Smith?

My goodness that A+ rookie class is gonna be looking weak by the time we go to bed Sunday night, September 13th

This MLF era 17-4 (0.809) start has been more than spectacular. Here's some first 21 games history going back to Vince Lombardi:

GO PACK GO!!
