Airlines love the 777, as it is a reliable and economical workhorse. Unfortunately, it is not as good from a passenger perspective. The cabin is relatively noisy, and when Boeing designed the plane they presumably never imagined that airlines would squeeze in seven seats abreast in J, and 10 in Y. The cross section of Airbus' widebodies just doesn't allow configurations like that.
