With help on either side, merely being wide is usually enough to do a credible job. But by and large, Banks has been getting murdered out there.
That said - anyone can do a good job for a single game. And that's really what this all comes down to. In a single game sample size, a whole of stuff means a whole lot of nothing. Maybe Banks plays the game of his life like Wylie did in the SB last season. If so, the 49ers have plenty of life in them.
But if Jones works him out like I think he will, Brock's gonna have a tough tough day.

McKivitz is a pretty weak link, too. I think we'll see Jones bouncing out to LE to get that matchup a bunch, too. It's worth it, honestly, just to force Kittle to stay in on passing downs, I think.
Danna-Wharton-Karlaftis-Jones with Bolton threatening the A gap and a slot DB or LB also at the LOS showing blitz potential. Force them to keep Kittle in to block. Do weird stuff ... send 6. Send 5. Send 4. Send 3.
See how they handle it.
