Most people use the term "dropper loop" referring to the style of rig, but not the knot itself. The dropper loop knot has been proven to have a very low breaking strength. But based on where it's breaking, I think your knot from the loop to the hook might be an issue as well.
Switch your knot a to a spider hitch knot, or use a 3 way swivel rig like mentioned above. If you use the spider hitch, cut the loop and run one end to your hook, and one to the weight so you're not running a double like to the hook.
