Please correct me if I'm wrong but 6. d4 blunders the pawn because of exd4.

Working in the mentor and this came along as I was looking at defenses against the fried liver.
They talk about how Nxe5 is not a good plan:
" This is where many beginners go wrong. It seems only natural to capture the pawn, but that leads to big trouble after 6.d4! or even the famous Fried Liver Attack 6.Nxf7!"
What's the big trouble of d4? Is it that white's bishop is now engaged?
