Well, black does gets whacked too in this variation. But I think he scores about 50% in database games which is a good result for the black side. Even if black´s attack runs out of steam and white keeps that extra pawn it´s often not enough to force a win. You could say, black has good prospects but a draw up his sleeve to fall back on if things go south.
The past days I read a lot about the Marshall Attack and I have to conclude you guys are doing great. 
I like the positions for black in this strategy.

I can't recall him making a mistake that bad before (at least in a normal time control). He will still be a huge favorite over anyone he plays for the world championship but he has looked more beatable lately.
He keeps losing more and more the last time. If he keep playing like this i don't think you would still be a huge favorite tho. He needs to get back his form to play well. Just like Aronian. He is back on track. If he becomes the opponent of Carlsen it would be a great match.

Bb7 makes no sense at all. It defeats the purpose of black´s gambit. White just plays Nf3 and is a good pawn up.
I'm sorry, you're right
