I am not going to comment on which of these are correct or not. There is a lot of controversy on this topic.
I will say though that this is not a good sentence construction and as written it sounds horribly old fashioned to me. I would write the sentences as follows:
I am the one to blame.
You are the one to blame.
He is the one to blame.
We are the ones to blame.
You are the ones to to blame.
They are the ones to to blame.
Better sentences with no controversy.
