They can't do that for an American dub. In the Japanese version, they animate the mouth for the duration of the script, for the American Dub, they couldn't just act, because they have to experiment with length, duration and speed of speech and words. Many times editing the script on the fly to get it down.
Personally, I have a lot of respect for the English VAs, they work with a lot more adversity than Japanese VAs, considering the Japanese VAs just have to act, the English VAs have to transform a meaning into dialogue and get it to fit in less/more syllables than they would desire.
