Native speaker’s answer

Rebecca

If you "blame it on" a person or thing, it means you believe or say that they are responsible for or that they caused a situation or result. Here Monica is using it to say that Ross always says the reason she wins is something other than her skill. Ex: Don't blame it on your sister. This is your fault. Ex: I blame it on the weather.
