Laravel Editing post doesn't work

There are routes 

Route::get('posts', 'PostsController@index');
Route::get('posts/create', 'PostsController@create');
Route::get('posts/{id}', 'PostsController@show')->name('posts.show');
Route::get('get-random-post', 'PostsController@getRandomPost');
Route::post('posts', 'PostsController@store');
Route::post('publish', 'PostsController@publish');
Route::post('unpublish', 'PostsController@unpublish');
Route::post('delete', 'PostsController@delete');
Route::post('restore', 'PostsController@restore');
Route::post('change-rating', 'PostsController@changeRating');

Route::get('dashboard/posts/{id}/edit', 'PostsController@edit');
Route::put('dashboard/posts/{id}', 'PostsController@update');

Route::get('dashboard', 'DashboardController@index');
Route::get('dashboard/posts/{id}', 'DashboardController@show')->name('dashboard.show');
Route::get('dashboard/published', 'DashboardController@published');
Route::get('dashboard/deleted', 'DashboardController@deleted');

methods in PostsController

public function edit($id) 
{
    $post = Post::findOrFail($id);  
    return view('dashboard.edit', compact('post'));
}

public function update($id, PostRequest $request) 
{
    $post = Post::findOrFail($id);
    $post->update($request->all());
    return redirect()->route('dashboard.show', ["id" => $post->id]);
}

but when I change post and click submit button, I get an error

MethodNotAllowedHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 233:

What's wrong? How to fix it?

upd

opening of the form from the view 

{!! Form::model($post, ['method'=> 'PATCH', 'action' => ['PostsController@update', $post->id], 'id' => 'edit-post']) !!}

and as result I get 

<form method="POST" action="http://mytestsite/dashboard/posts?6" accept-charset="UTF-8" id="edit-post"><input name="_method" type="hidden" value="PATCH"><input name="_token" type="hidden" value="aiDh4YNQfLwB20KknKb0R9LpDFNmArhka0X3kIrb">

but why this action http://mytestsite/dashboard/posts?6 ???

Try to use patch instead of put in your route for updating.

Just a small tip you can save energy and a bit of time by declaring the Model in your parameters like this:

public function update(Post $id, PostRequest $request)

and get rid of this

 $post = Post::findOrFail($id);

EDIT

You can use url in your form instead of action :

'url'=> '/mytestsite/dashboard/posts/{{$post->id}}'

Try to send post id in hidden input, don't use smt like that 'action' => ['PostsController@update', $post->id] It contribute to result action url.

Based on the error message, the most probable reason is the mismatch between action and route. Maybe route requires POST method, but the action is GET. Check it.
