With a retractable roof, the potential of hosting a Super Bowl, the NFL Draft, as well as hosting other sporting events (i.e. soccer, neutral site MLB games between Blue Jays and the NY teams) become possibilities.

In their division, the open air stadium is really an advantage only against one team (Miami), and that's only if the league makes the decision of scheduling the Buffalo meeting in late November/December. I would think the collateral business opportunities provided by having a retractable roof or domed stadium would far outweigh the minimal number of home field advantage opportunities when Buffalo faces a southern team in frigid temperatures.
