"They are not as excited" - is this grammatically correct? I'm wondering if it needs another noun for a comparison (e.g. "they are not as excited as us")

Yes I think it's better to write " They are not excited" rather than "They are not as excited"
When using as its better to complete it with as ... as structure ( They are not as excited as we are or our team is)
Hope it helps

Yes, or there could be an implied comparison:
While Peter was very excited, Mike was not as excited.
