I wish I had the guts to turn off the ratings. Right now, I evaluate players based on both, but I do weigh them a bit differently.

Currently in my solo league, Jeromy Burnitz is playing awful, but his ratings are fairly good. I'm much more likely to stick with him now, then if the situation were reversed. So, I guess, I look at stats predominately but ultimately there's a ratings consideration somewhere in there.

On a related note: for those of you who don't use ratings, how do you got about doing this? Do you use real or fictitiuos players? Do you sim a backlog of seasons before you take a team? How do you evaluate guys with very limited stats? I would really like to try this, but I'm just not ambitious enough.
