Are you serious? If I bet out this flop, it could very easily be telling the guy "I think you missed, I have 66/77 and I'm pretty sure I'm ahead". His raise could be JJ.

Yeah, it could be Jacks, but most likely it's not. Villain is a loose player, which means he's opening with far more mediocre hands then rockcrushers. If he has Jacks, then I really doubt he's getting away from them, even if Hero check-raises. A check-raise could also mean, "I think you missed and I'm pretty sure I'm way ahead." If Hero has garbage, he's making a continuation bet regardless. Might aswell check-raise his autobet and take it down if he's missed. Leading out pretty much eliminates the chance to take free money away from Villain when he's missed his hand. Given the type of player that Villain is, I see him having less than stellar hands more often than not.
