If the morale within the locker room was as bad as Manish described, the team wouldn't have gone 6-2 down the stretch and Gase wouldn't still be employed as the head coach.
Thank you Gregg Williams. I was wrong about you. You're still a dick, but you're a dick who's really good at your job.
Most of us believe in Joe Douglas. If circumstances were truly that dire, do you genuinely believe he wouldn't have been aware of that and communicated this to the Johnsons, forcing their hand?
Whole bunch of stuff wrong there, the main bits being that you're still going on this whole idea that the players are internally revolting against Gase, that you think a first year GM would move against the owners' handpicked coach, and that you think they'd have listened.
If Gase had alienated himself from the team by midseason, they wouldn't have been able to keep that a secret and Gase likely wouldn't have made it through the season.
Please tell me the last time a coach was fired midway through his first season. (I can help you with this. It was 1978, when the 49ers fired someone called Pete McCulley. It's the only time it has ever happened.)

So you're saying that people changing their views based upon evidence is.... a bad thing?
