Football is often a game of numbers, and Tom Benson School in Kenner knows that there's a lot those numbers can teach young students about math.
For the Falcons, it was a franchise defining collapse. For our kids at @benson_school, 28-3 is the foundation for a fun math lesson that’ll make you smile (unless you’re a Falcons fan). -- #WeLove #WeLearn #WeLead #JPSchools #LaEd @Saints #NFL #Saints @drewbrees @camjordan94 pic.twitter.com/UQQCJQnEoo

November 4, 2019 The video tweeted by the Jefferson Parish Public School system shows Benson School principal John Star and superintendent Cade Brumley quizzing students on the number of Super Bowls the Atlanta Falcons have been in (2) versus the number of wins the Falcons have (0).
As the students learn, the Falcons led 28-3 in Super Bowl LI only to have the New England Patriots score 31 unanswered points to win it 34-28. The Falcons also lost Super Bowl XXXIII to the Denver Broncos 34-19.
The 7-1 Saints host the 1-7 Falcons this Sunday at noon.
