I have noticed the same on the B737 NG. Always a touch of right rudder trim, some more pronounced than others, but always to the right. So its not just 777 and 757's.

If you look at a 737 from behind on the taxi there is quite a noticeable castering effect. Where the aircraft appears to be crabbing slightly to one side. Don't know if that has anything to do with it??
