That is exactly the case. New England used to make me sick, I cheered against them in almost every circumstance. And I still don't particularly like them. But when you just step back and remove emotions a little bit to realize the greatness of that team it's much more bearable/enjoyable.
As a Celtics fan I went through the same thing with Magic and Lakers and then even more so with Jordan and the Bulls. Greatness is what it is.
The greatness of the Pats is so unique. It's not like they blow out people in Super Bowls. Many of those great teams just dominate. This is where Belichick is so good..at figuring out a way to win, and having Brady helps.
They won their first 3 super bowls by 3, and then the one against the Seahawks by 4, and now one that was tied in regulation, but won by six.
It's just unique. Most dominating teams destroy.
The satisfaction might be greater as a Pats fans though (if I were one) to know that we don't need to dominate, and no matter the circumstances, there is a good chance we will figure out a way to win. A win is a win.
