A blunt tweet from the account of Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy had people wondering if he'd been hacked, but McCoy wants the world to know he meant every word.

"Knowshon [Moreno] sucks," McCoy wrote insulting the Denver Broncos running back, during the Broncos-Cowboys game Sunday.

So McCoy started his weekly press conference letting reporters know the tweet was no mistake.

"I just want to say I think Doug Martin is a heck of a running back," McCoy said, unprompted.

"So he doesn't suck?" someone in the assembled crowd asked.

"Nah," said McCoy. "He's one of the better running backs for sure."

"I don't want to talk about the past," he added. "It is what it is. What I said is what I meant."

But the insult didn't seem to bother Moreno, who tweeted back at his new detractor.
