It would need to be partially covered and offer some wind protection, but I don't think a fully indoor stadium would ever happen even some eccentric billionaire brought NFL here (they tried and failed with CalgaryNext).
Baseball and soccer/football have very different weather requirements as well. Can easily play soccer or football in rain or snow and some cold (-5-10'C is probably the coldest for soccer) as long as the fans are covered and there's some wind mitigation
