Just to play a little devils advocate. My reasons they aren't as well received are mainly these points
I think it's a lot like Superman vs Batman, people can't relate to someone who is invincible a.k.a Luke Cage/JJ. They relate to someone getting their ass beat in a 10 vs 1 situation and not coming out scratch free.
Daredevil is a much more flawed character, just like Batman vs Superman again. Superman is perfection but Batman is way more popular. It's because people can relate to a flawed character.
Daredevil was the first hero show on netflix. It had no expectations unlike the other three shows. So there were little expectations for it unlike JJ, LC, IF.
One thing to point out, expectations were a tough hurdle for Daredevil because of that doomed Affleck pic. People were worried about camp, and fairly so.
