come on mate this 3.nc3 idea as a refutation has been outdated for at least a decade.
it is now well known that 1.e4 nc6 2.d4 d5 3.nc3 dxe4 4. d5 nb8! 5.nxe4 c6 almost immediately equalizes
Yes, this is true. Actually white can try playing Blackmar-style 5.f3 (and this position may also come from a Blackmar) and enjoy a reasonable compensation for the pawn. However, Black can decline with 5.f3 Nf6 6.fxe4 e6! with a fine game.
