If they had lost, would that have meant that the comments didn’t matter?
The Chiefs are just a really good team with some really high end talent. They are going to be motivated in the playoffs plenty regardless of the opponent.

I dunno, the pressure they put on Burrow in the Burrowhead game was unreal... I believe the old saying is motivation shows up in practice/prep, but that was one time I wondered if "wanting it more" actually mattered (and up until that game, I would have said the same stuff you're saying).
Yeah, it's not some magic bullet... those games will still be 50/50 and guys like Mahomes don't
solely rely on outside motivation like OP. However, if it was completely pointless, I'd wonder why Stroupe seems to feed him those things?
