Why not defending with the queen?

Hello! I have recently started studying and playing chess. Currently about 1200 on chess.com.
I have reviewed a recent game and not sure about this spot: (I play black)
I played Qd6 because I thought it defends the knight on e5 but still maintains the double defence on the pawn on d5 as well.
The engine however considers this move as a mistake and suggests that Nc6 is best.
Why is my move bad and the Nc6 so much better?
