The Saints often put on a show on the field itself, but the score doesn't change one important title: New Orleans is undefeated in the competition of top NFL cities.

The home of the Saints was ranked No. 1 in a recent USA Today ranking of the top NFL cities.

"It is really hard to have a bad time in New Orleans. Incredible food, incredible culture and nightlife, and most everything is walkable, including the stadium," wrote Ben Volin in his rankings. "On game day, the atmosphere inside the Superdome is always loud and supercharged."

Falling in behind New Orleans was Green Bay, Miami, Las Vegas and Buffalo.

The Saints open up their 2021 on Aug. 14 against the Baltimore Ravens on the road, and take the field for the first time at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Aug. 23 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Saints' 2021 regular season will officially kick off in New Orleans against the Packers on Sept. 12.
