However, they have had an indoor practice facility for quite a number of years now and have won many Super Bowls. If the goal is to emulate the Patriots...
The Patriots use practice to get their players on the same page with their game plan, etc.
A Key to this is Communication.
It is a lot harder to communicate when 53 players plus Coaches are all shivering their Nads off in 22 degree weather while wind is whistling in their ears forcing people to yell at the top of their lungs only to maybe be heard. Hard to concentrate.
It would be best to have both an Indoor and Outdoor practice facility and use which ever one you felt would serve the team best on a day by day basis.
May want to practice in the Snow right before a Snow weather game or not practice in 50 mile per hour winds before a calm wind weather game.
Case by case usage of either facility at any time.
