Photons are travelling at the speed of light. So hows the ship supposed to be travelling faster than the photons its using for propulsion?

Protect the ship how?????
Sometimes photons are a side effect of something not the point of something.

How?!?. Whats so special about these magnetic fields. And why magnetic fields?

Um, no. That link basically says that magnetic fields can potentially deflect radiation. Not set up some magical bubble that changes the metrics of space and time to achieve super luminal speeds. Hows it going to deal with inertial mass? The thing that stops you from going super luminal in the first place. Deflect micro meteorites and solar radiation and nothing will stop you from going past the speed of light?!?
Tell me more this is fascnating...
