It's a great point.
It is if your starting point is "how can I make sure that Gase and Douglas are held absolutely blameless in this mess they've made?" As has been discussed ad nauseam in this thread, if the team were well run and/or successful then Adams probably wouldn't have started asking for a new contract at this stage. His position is that if he's going to be stuck on this shambles of a franchise working for these clowns, then he wants big money to do so - hence the story about him being willing to play out his rookie deal for the right team.
So yes, if he got his big contract then he probably wouldn't be complaining about Gase, because he'd be getting paid to put up with him. Gase isn't an excuse for wanting out, he's one of the main reasons.
