Of course, the runs he makes out of busted plays is to the credit of the OL: 
he's still standing and there are holes to run through.

Not sure how the stat is kept. 

I don't think a planned TT draw up the middle that is stuffed for a 1 yard loss 
is counted as a sack. It may be a discretionary call by the stat-keeper, like 
an assist or an error.

I sort of had the reverse thought. I've seen several plays that would have been 
sacks against less mobile QBs that TT has turned into a gain with his ability 
to scramble and run. I suspect the "should have been sacked but got away" 
number is higher than the "ran for a loss and we'll call it a sack."

Not sure if there is any way to tell.

Don't forget...some of the sacks are not totally deep behind the line of 
scrimmage...but they are result of TT trying to run but getting stuffed 
(meaning, these sacks were not due to OL failing to protect the QB kind of 
sacks). Right?
