Rook sacrifice situation

I'm not sure if I should post this in Game Analysis or Puzzles, but I'm posting it in Game Analysis because I want to talk about the specific strategy I had. Below is what I thought was a great rook-sacrifice situation:

In this situation, I thought the e3 square decided the position and, frankly, the match. I figured that I had doubled rooks on the e-file and a bishop attacking the e3 square that could pin the queen on d2. When I played Rxe3, it began the sequence of moves that I had been anticipating and hoping for; it led to me capturing the queen. However, as I look at the computer analysis of the game, I see that the computer doesn't think that this position is particularly advantageous for Black. The material difference is White's additional rook, bishop, and knight to Black's queen and additional pawn. I think Black is in a good position to either capture White's knight on f3 or attack the second row with his queen and rook. What do you guys think?

Yes, 1...Rxe3 is a good move.
However, after the forced line
1...Rxe3 2 fxe3 Bxe3 3 Qxe3 Rxe3 4 Rxd7 Rxf3 5 Rxf7 Rxf7 6 Rf1 Qe4 7 Rxf7 Qe1+ 8 Kc2 Kh7
black has a queen (9) for a rook and a bishop (5 + 3 = 8), definitely an advantage, but hard to convert to a win.
