I hate spots like this, but I hate giving up the initiative as well, especially with the flop this coordinated. I fire at the flop purely for the times it folds out overcards. I freak out and start playing badly if called, though, so who knows...

Also, once you've checked and he's bet like that, I think it's worth considering a raise. ~$65. I basically go after all puny bets like that, though. If he shoves on you I think it's a pretty easy fold. The problem comes if he smooth calls. But in that case it just comes back to the fact that playing JJ OOP in big pots sucks balls.

Probably because he didn't know how he'd respond to a raise.

Which brings us back to the question: if you c-bet here and get shoved on, what's the play?

It's kinda tough without any reads, but I think most opponents will just call and re-evaluate with TT/99. So I'd put him on QQ-AA, AdKd, which means we're in really bad shape vs his range (14% equity!).
