The villain in this hand had played 15 hands with me and he's been pretty loose.

CO ($431.25)
Button ($67.6)
SB ($254.45)
Hero ($332.45)

This might be kinda weak-tight but I say muck it. You're behind AT,A9,A4,AA,TT,99,44, and any 2 spades. The only hand I think he might play this way that you're ahead of is Ax, and if his x is a spade it's close. JMO

The problem with this hand is that you can't possibly be ahead by much and you could potentially be way behind (a flush, set, and higher two pair all have you in big trouble). I don't know if I'd even bet the flop but it kind of depends on my mood at the moment.

I'm want y'all to take a look at that flop again and tell me which hands you mentioned here that will check call that flop?

I don't think that many. I'm not saying it's not a very dangerous situation but I wish I had gone with my gut feel at the time.
