This is an extremely common error and a good one to look out for. Whenever you see:

MethodNotAllowedHttpException in RouteCollection.php

The very first thing you should check is your routes file to make sure you have Route::get or Route::post correctly based on what you are trying to do.

Your issue is that your form sends the data as POST, but your route is GET.

<form action="{{ route('admin.blog.post.create') }}" method="post">

and

Route::get('/blog/post/create', [
   'uses' => 'PostController@postCreatePost',
   'as' => 'admin.blog.post.create'
]);

Change that to Route::post for it to function correctly.
