Because he wasn't a routine winner in Baltimore, and he was always chasing the QB.
Furthermore, I believe that offensive brilliance isn't necessarily the easiest trait to transcend for head coaches. What I mean by this is that being a great OC, which Billick has shown he is, is about being cerebral. Head coaches must necessarily be involved in too many other facets, and thus his expertise on the offensive side doesn't get to surface as much.
Hell, look at his time in Baltimore. The knock was always that his offense underachieved and that it was a team carried by its defense.
Bad year, good year. Rinse, repeat. Schedule champions with no playoff success.
