England registered their first victory over the All Blacks at Twickenham since 2012 with Ford directing operations in a man-of-the-match performance 12 months after he struggled in the same fixture.
The Sale fly-half missed a late penalty and drop-goal that would have sealed New Zealand's fate in 2024, but on this occasion he finished with a 13-point haul and provided the generalship his team needed.
“George is a brilliant player, an outstanding leader and an even better person,” said Borthwick. “I have been privileged to work with him for a period of time.
“I know you like to talk about 12 months ago and the ball hitting a post, but he came on 12 months ago and played really well as he always does for England.
