They adapt
A dinosaur would be as big as it needed to be to maintain it's spot on the food chain,
Your theory holds weight until you look at nature around you and realize and some things become extinct others tend to grow ... Ants get bigger, bees get bigger and he slowly move up the food chain yet maintain their purpose in the cycle of life
It's the way it's always worked and will continue To work

ants and bees have gotten smaller
humans get bigger through breeding, and plenty. i can eat anything i want. in ancient times you ate whatever you could get, which was largely grain based and veggie based
people who consumed lots of proteins were huge. the barbarians from the north, basically the ancestors of vikings and germans were giants compared to romans who ate fish figs, olives and egyptian grain. meanwhile they lived in dense forests and ate wild pigs, deers, fish, basically all protein
it has alot to do with everything
but we are mammals
reptiles need space, and oxygen. its the same principle as if you get an iguana, he only grows to the size of the cage. in the wild iguanas get giant, but they still aren't big enough for a human to not kill it with its bare hands
the closest we get are reptiles that dont depend on oxygen as much/can process it better, aka alligators and crocodiles, but even they are just a shadow of there former greatness
even the fish in the sea are smaller. there were dragonflies as big as eagles
but word a humans growth is miniscule in comparison to the size differential of dinosaurs and modern reptiles
but word this isnt MY theory, its the scientific consensus lol
