I'm in the of a 8ptbb downswing over my last 5k hands flame away. My move for pot control looks like it backfired on the turn.
Villain is has been fairly aggressive pre- and post-flop, but nothing crazy.

Why not bet the turn to price out the draws? If he's typical, then his flop call may just be that: a flop call. I wouldn't assume he flopped anything huge and give him the river for nothing. As played, you priced him in on just a flush draw from the flop (you gave him better than 2:1 to draw 2 cards to 9 outs).
