Against the Giants there was a play when McMahon was clearly running out of bounds to avoid a hit (after a gain tho) and he was hit well out of bounds and dragged to the ground (or should I say thrown to the ground). If the refs won't protect a quarterback on his way out of bounds, they won't call a play like you described (in the playoffs).
