I’ve always thought a navy ship could have arms extending from each side, out say 20′ or so that holds some sort of draping system, like a chain or something, that extends below the bottom of the hull. Then, if a sub fired a torpedo at it, it would either explose on the chain or just get caught up in it.

They did! It was called a torpedo belt, but bulge armor was more common. In reality, there was only so much you could do to avoid getting hit by a torpedo, especially since a submarine could fire one at you from any direction and impact you just about anywhere on the parts of the ship exposed to water.
