Tomatoes rotting very quickly

This year was bad for blight. I think it was all the rain and very cool nights. So now, most of the leaves are gone off the tomato plants, except maybe a few at the top. The tomatoes are turning red (more like orange) very quickly. I've discovered if I don't pick them early and let them sit in the house a few days, they rot on the vine.
At least I got tomatoes at all! They are mushy inside, but hey.....they're still sort of red. I'm freezing them and no one will know the difference, once they're in soup or chili.

I'm wondering why they're rotting so quickly? I'm guessing that once the leaves are gone, things just can't go as planned?
