What varieties are they, and why are they in the same pot? Dark patches at the bottom of the fruit indicate blossom end rot. Google Image Result for http://www.concordma.com/blog/tomato_blossom_end_rot.jpg

Well BER is brown under the skin. Perhaps you could put a photo up for us?

The rot in blossom end rot is not usually soft which some people associate with rotten. It's a hard dark patch.
