RUBY path helper

The following works

index.html.erb 
<h1>this is the neo blog</h1>
<% @pages.each do |blog|%>
    <p><%=link_to blog.title, blog_path(blog)%> </p>
<% end %>
routes.rb 
Rails.application.routes.draw do
  # For details on the DSL available within this file, see http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html
  get 'pages', to: 'pages#index'
  get '/pages/:id', to: 'pages#show', as: 'blog'

end

HOWEVER... The following does not work

index.html.erb 
<h1>this is the neo blog</h1>
<% @pages.each do |blog|%>
    <p><%=link_to blog.title, blog%> </p>
<% end %>
routes.rb 
Rails.application.routes.draw do
  # For details on the DSL available within this file, see http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html
  get 'pages', to: 'pages#index'
  get '/pages/:id', to: 'pages#show', as: 'blog'

end

and results in the following error

undefined method `page_path' for #<#<Class:0x007fd871ac84a0>:0x007fd86dd15630> Did you mean? pages_path image_path

I would love to know what I am doing wrong and gain some understanding into the workings of path helpers
