Steve Borthwick downplayed suggestions from Eddie Jones that England were looking too far ahead coming into the Six Nations.
England are nursing the wounds of back-to-back defeats against Scotland at Murrayfield and Ireland at Twickenham, leaving them in a precarious position in the competition.
It prompted England coach Jones to refer back to Borthwick's comments before the tournament, when he set his sights on a final-day title decider against France.
"On March 14 in Paris, we want to be in a position entering that game where we can achieve what we're all aiming to achieve," Borthwick said in January.
Borthwick said on Wednesday he had not heard Jones' comments.
