Default Paired boards vs. crazy guys

I seem to get raised on paired flop boards by aggressive villians an awful lot - way too much for every raiser to have connected with the board. So let me ask you this... In a situation like the one below, where my raise has been called by an aggressive bettor who likes to raise these type of flops, is it sometimes better to check the flop, and see how the villian reacts to my check? I feel like most villians (even aggressive ones) that have not connected with the flop might find a check more scary than a continuation bet, and react more honestly.
